Windows - System Error

[Phil]

When using a dial up modem to connect to Romote Access
Server, I get following message: "Windows - System Error
A duplicate name exists on the network". This is home
laptop, not hooked to any network, but laptop is set up
with 2 users. Connection is always made and seems to run
ok, but the message is always appear at log-on and
eventually disappears. Is there a way to remove
duplicate names on a network to elimanate this error
message?
