I upgraded a Windows 2k professional machine to Windows
XP professional using an upgrade version of XP.

I put a check mark next to allow users to connect
remotely in the My computer Properties.

When trying to connect to the computer remotely using the
Remote Desktop Connection utility in Windows XP, I get
the following message...

The local policy of this system does not permit you to
logon interactively.

I can connect to other pc's fromt the same remote
computer, but I cannot connect to this particular
upgraded pc.

I check all the local policies, but I didn't see anything
out of the ordinary.

There was no help I could find in the knowledge base that
I could find either.

thanks,
 
Thanks!

When upgrading, the local user must not be placed in this
policy. The solution was as follows:

You can also open gpedit.msc, expand Computer
Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->Local
Policies->User Rights Assignment, find "Allow logon
through Terminal Services" and add the account to see if
that was the problem.
