[dba-Tech] Network Password

Well, much headway - first the HD failed on the laptop.  So I ran down to
Fry's, picked up a WD 500GB drive stuck it in and managed to install W&
ultimate OS and am reloading everything.

In the process, somewhere along the way, W7 asked me about sharing and led
me to the home group screen on my main box (HAL9007) and I gave the LT the
password and walla! Trouble free communication between the two boxes.

In fact, that problem appears solved.  Random walk, law of averages, trial
and error  - certainly not due to some deliberate plan on my part.  But it
works.

Next Q: Every time the LT reboots, the icons on the desktop are rearranged.
Is there any way to stop that - lock the DT icon arrangement so that W7
doesn't rearrange them for me?

Hey Rocky,
Sorry, I kind of lost track of this post. Did you make any headway?

Dear Lists:
 
Time to figure this out.  I am trying to get my laptop - which I only use
for travel - to talk to my primary box so I can upload stuff I need to take
with me.  I've been working around this for a long time by copying to my
external HD and plugging that into the LT.  But that's soooo unprofessional.
 
When I try to connect to the main box from the LT or from the LT to the main
box I get a dialog box asking me to Enter Network User Name and Password but
I have no idea what this could be.  Main box does not have a login, just
fires right up - LT has a login - user name and password, but that does not
work as credentials on either box.
 
Any ideas how to find the Network User Name and Password?
