Remote Registry Error on XP

[Brian]

I am getting an error when connecting to
the remote registry on a windows XP computer.
Unfortunately I can't tell what the error code
stands for because my sniffer(ethereal in this case)
doesn't know what it stands for either. Also
I have had no luck searching for clues in online
documentation.

The error occurs after all authentication is
performed and exists only during the 'openkey'
procedure. I have provided a snapshot of the
sniffer in action at:

(Notice the highlighted packet in blue)

Does anybody know what this return code (0x00000005)
stands for?

If I am connecting to the registry on a windows2k
machine, the return code that is in the same
packet is 0x00000000 (success). I am stumped. Why
do I get this problem on XP but not on 2k?

Help is greatly appreciated! Thanks

This pretty much explains how XP changed:

/all/reskit/en-us/prde_ffs_ypuh.asp?frame=true

To change the setting in XP go to Start>Programs>Admin
Tools>Local Security Policy

And change the value of "Network access: Sharing and
security model for local accounts"

Don't have this, i.e. no Local Security Policy in Admin Tools. Where
else might it be?
