Hey all,
I have a domain, lets call it MYDOM(win 2k)
I have client machines as Win XP 2002 loggin on to the domain.
my server application is installed on one of the xp machine MAC1,
which logs on to the domain. during the installation of the server
application, i have created a user MYUSER, pwd=MYPWD; with local
administrator privileges (this account is meant for a service that
needs to running for my server app). my server application works just
fine with no problems.
A different client application, installed on another xp machine MAC2
(which too logs on to the domain) connects to the MAC1 using
WnetAddConnection2 API. while doing so, i get an error "unknown
username or bad password"
I have checked in my client app:
a. Username (MYUSER) is correct
b. password (MYPWD) is correct
c. Machine name is correct (MAC1)
d. For MAC1, in the Local Security POlicy - Local Policies - User
rights assignment -
+ Access this computer from network = "everyone"
+ log on locally = MYUSER
+ Deny logon locally = EMPTY
+ Deny access to this computer from network = EMPTY
e. if the password was incorrect for MYUSER, my server app would stop
working.
I cannot check with the credentials for MYUSER from MAC2, coz when i
start-run- \\MAC1, it does not asks for credentials, since both the
machines log on to the same domain with equal rights. neither can let
MAC2 logon locally.
The question is
1. Is there any domain level security policy that restricts MAC2 from
connecting to MAC1 with a local administrator on MAC1.
I have tested my client app in a domain as mentioned, works well. Its
just not working under this domain.
there must be something else that needs to be checked, so i thought i
might as well ask the experts here.

Bhushan :-)
