XPE Network Share

[Hugh]

Hi all,

I have my XPE image running on another PC with the Command Shell user
interface. The Administrator account has a blank password (security is not
an issue), and I am trying to set up a network share on it so I can send
files to it.

I have successfully created the share, but when trying to connect to it from
this PC I get the following error:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
System error 1327 has occurred.

Logon failure: user account restriction. Possible reasons are blank
passwords
not allowed, logon hour restrictions, or a policy restriction has been
enforced.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have tried running "net user Administrator passwordreq:no" on the XPE
machine, but still no luck. I dont want to create any more users, or set up
a password on the Administrator account on the XPE machine as I want it to
login automatically, plus I can't use minlogon as I need the .NET Framework.

If anyone has any ideas as to how I could create bascially an unrestricted
network share that would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers, Hugh

Hugh,

Is it SP2 based image? Try avoinding blank passwords with SP2.
With Autologon component you can still have the Administrator account to logon automatically even if the password is not blank.

For the share, provide the All access to Everyone and turn on guest (search for "forceguest" in this NG archive) on your image.

Hi KM, thanks for the help.

It is a SP2 image. Autologon would be good, how do I find that component?

Cheers, Hugh

Hugh,

Component "Automatic Logon" is located under "Software : System : Security :
Infrastructure"

You can setup you logon parameters in this component.

Hugh,

And set up the password in "Administrator Account" component settings that matches the password from "Automatic Logon" component.
