Hi,

I have a Windows XP Professional pc which I need to connect to a Windows Server 2008 pc without having to enter a user name and password. I have configured 2008 to allow other pcs to log in without a password, but are still required to enter a user name. Are there registry files I must change for the particular user account on 2008 to allow an external pc to log in without a user name and password? It would be ideal if there existed a process which would allow me to choose which user account on 2008 will not require a user id or password for specific pcs (mac address).

TIA
