Cannot Connect to LAN Computer - Local Policy Error

I am trying to connect to another computer on my LAN but get the error...The
Local Policy of this System Does Not Allow You to Log On Interactively. The
'allow users to connect to this computer remotely' box is checked on teh
computer i am trying to connect to and I am an Administrator on both
machines. WinXP is on both machines. I am able to establish a remote
connection from computer A to computer B...but not from computer B to
computer A. Any help would be appreciated.

Are you trying to logon with the same account that is already logged
on?

Yes. I have an account on each computer that is exactly the same and am
logged into both computers when i try to connect. The accounts have the
same name, password and both accounts are Administrators.
