some times on some computers I am able to enter a remote computer without it
having a password using remote desktop. On others although they dont have a
password I cannot log in... I have to set a password for me to be able to
log in on those....

How can I get rid of the passwords and log in from remote desktop without
one...
 
Note that this is a potential and probable security risk to do this...

You can also configure the PC with the Tweak UI Power Toy for XP for auto
logon...

Personally I recommend always using a *STRONG* password, always requiring a
password and running Remote Desktop through a VPN or Secure Shell tunnel
over the public internet...

Hello Kenny,

It is neccessary to have a password on the account on which you are trying to log-on remotely using
Remote Desktop. You can provide this password to the remote Desktop client (mstsc.exe) by clicking
on the 'Options >>' button. This way, the user credentials will be supplied to the remote computer
automatically everytime.
