Windows Forum / Windows Me / Networking / November 2005Network password
I have a network but I never set a password for it. All of a sudden I am getting network password request pop up window upon rebooting the PC. Any way to turn this off? Appriciate a suggestion! >I have a network but I never set a password for it. All of a sudden I am >getting network password request pop up window upon rebooting the PC. Any way >to turn this off? Appriciate a suggestion! Go to Control Panel | Network and set the primary network logon to Windows Logon. Reboot, and log on with a user name and no password. It won't ask for a logon again.

In Network we have config, identification, and access control. In property of client for Microsoft Networks we have log on to windows NT, quick logon, and logon and restore network connection. in access control we have shared level access control and user level access control. So, where is the primary network logon? ...in the middle of the front page (Configuration) SignatureNoel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2005, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.btinternet.com/~winnoel/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's > Steve thanks for the kind reply.

Noel, I have the same problem, but am new to WindowsXP. If I can be so simple, I click on Start, Control Panel, Network and Internet Connections, and then I am lost. I keep trying to find the "configure" area you speak of, but am lost. Sorry for my ignorance, and thank you!

Mary This newsgroup is for those with Windows Millennium problems!! (not Win XP!) - please repost your *problem* description to the appropriate group. (tip - 'same as' is almost never enough, or even correct! - read the link in my sig for what's needed) two such groups would be microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web or microsoft.public.windowsxp.setup_deployment HTH SignatureNoel Paton (MS-MVP 2002-2006, Windows) Nil Carborundum Illegitemi http://www.crashfixpc.com/millsrpch.htm http://tinyurl.com/6oztj Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post messages to NG's > Noel, I have the same problem, but am new to WindowsXP.
