[dba-Tech] Workgroup password

[Arthur Fuller]

Thanks for your efforts, Lambert, but still no Go. The YouTube link led me
down a path that showed the error as describe in the video, but I couldn't
resolve it. Windows could not start the Peer Name Resolution Protocol,
throwing err 0x80630203: unable to access a key.

O well.
