Guest n8cantor Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 I have two computers networked together and when I try to connect to my WinXP computer from my Win2000 computer (and not the other way around), I have to type in my WinXP username and password. It remembers it until I restart, then I have to type it in again to connect. This would not be a problem except I have a printer on the WinXP computer and cannot reach it unless I am signed in. Is there a way to make my computer remeber this information, or even better, not require it at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shield Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Well, if you would like NOT to have a login for it (which i suggest not doing) you can goto Start > Settings > Control Panel > Click on Users and Passwords, and uncheck "Users must enter a username and password to log in" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest n8cantor Posted September 14, 2004 Report Share Posted September 14, 2004 Windows XP doesn't have that option, and since I am trying to logon on to that computer that won't work. It is already unchecked on the other computer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarecrow Man Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 You could set up a remote user. When you turn on one computer, log in with a certain user, it's actually a user on the other computer?Just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
