RDC Logon Problem

S

Samuel Lewis

I just upgraded a system from Win2k to XP SP1, and decided to enable the
remote desktop so that I could access resources on two different systems
(one remote, one local) at once.

When I try to connect, I'm shown a logon screen on the remote system, but it
won't let me log in. When I enter my password, I receive the message "local
policy of this system does not permit you to logon interactively."

I searched the knowledge base and changes settings to allow the automatic
logon, but that doesn't seem to fix the problem. I'm trying to log in with
my own username/password which has administrative privileges on the remote
system. I've also tried logging in with the administrator password and I
get the same message.

Any suggestions?

Despite seeing the message that my account already has access, I explicitly
added my account (which has administrator access on the XP Pro system) and
the administrator's account. Despite that, I still receive the same
message. The host machine is running XP Pro SP1.

Any other suggestions?
