Windows Forum / Windows XP / Networking and Web / September 2008Logon Failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon t
I am running a wireless network on WinXP Home w/SP2 (installed on all computers). Since installing SP2, we are having trouble sharing files on one of the networked computers (the other two work fine). Specifically, a) shared folders and files on this computer do not appear in My Network Places, and b) although we can view the workgroup computer in My Network Places, when we try to access it, we get the error message: "Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer." Please help.......Todd >I am running a wireless network on WinXP Home w/SP2 (installed on all >computers). Since installing SP2, we are having trouble sharing files on one [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > >Please help.......Todd The problem and the solution are on the XP Home computer that can't be accessed. Run XP's Network Setup Wizard on that computer -- that's sometimes all that's needed. If that doesn't fix the problem: 1. Download and install the Windows 2003 Server Resource Kit Tools from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=4544 . 2. Click Start | All Programs | Windows Resource Kit Tools | Command Shell. 3. Type these lines at the command prompt. The second and third commands are case-sensitive, so type them exactly as shown. Note the "+r" in the second one and the "-r" in the third one: net user guest /active:yes ntrights +r SeNetworkLogonRight -u Guest ntrights -r SeDenyNetworkLogonRight -u Guest  SignatureBest Wishes, Steve Winograd, MS-MVP (Windows Networking) Please post any reply as a follow-up message in the news group for everyone to see.

Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Mike B I have the same problem as Tod H, with 2 wireless computers unable to access a third computer wired to a router, even though that computer can be seen in workgroup computers. I get the message "Logon failure:the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer." I used the solution from Steve, by downloading the 2003 Server Resourse Kit Tools, and entering the required text. Now I get an "Access is denied" message. Any suggetions. > >> >I am running a wireless network on WinXP Home w/SP2 (installed on all > >> >computers).

If it doesn't, please reply to this message in the news group (not by E-mail) with more information to help other people understand the problem: 1. Does the third computer run XP Home Edition or XP Professional? 2. If it runs XP Professional, is simple file sharing enabled or disabled?

I'm sorry, but I don't answer questions addressed directly to me in E-mail or news groups. Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Steve, the 3rd computer (the one that will not share files) is running XP Home. One of the wireless computers is running XP Pro, but that one does not seem to have any problem sharing files. The original error message (about logon type) had "Windows Explorer" written in the title bar, however the new message has the workgroup name written in the title bar. The message itself refers to the computer that will not share files. I don't know whether this is helpful or not. I'm thinking of running the network wizard again on the problematic computer, and if that is not successful, repeating the 3 steps from the Server Resource Kit. > >> >> >I am running a wireless network on WinXP Home w/SP2 (installed on all > >> >> >computers).

Running the Network Setup Wizard on third computer might help. I don't think that repeating the steps from the Server Resource Kit will help -- they're specifically designed to solve the "Login failure" problem, and you've already done that. On the third computer, run the registry editor, open this key: HLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa and make sure that the DWORD value RestrictAnonymous is set to 0. Reboot the third computer and try accessing it. If that doesn't fix the problem, compare the registry values for "Lsa" on the third computer to the values on an XP Home computer that shares successfully.

Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Steve; I ran the registry editor and found that the DWORD value RestrictAnonymous was set to 1. I have not attempted to change the value yet. I assume that I would simply change the present value 0x00000001 (1) to 0x00000000 (0) by typing over it.

Yes, it's an obscure fix. I've found one mention of it in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: Error message when you try to access a Windows XP-based network computer: "You might not have permission to use this network resource" http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913628/en-us This fix is specifically indicated when: 1. You can access a computer's shared folders directly (e.g. by typing "\\computer\share" in the Start | Run box, or by mapping a network drive), and: 2. You're denied permission when you try to get a list of all of the computer's shared folders (e.g. by typing "\\computer" in the Start | Run box, or by clicking the computer's icon in My Network Places | "View workgroup computers").

Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Steve, I am getting the same logon failure message when my XP ties to access the Vista (Vista can access XP though). I have made it down your check list as far a running the resource kit on the XP. When I type the first command line I get the message "yes" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. The other command lines were accepted, but I still get the logon failure message. Suggestions? > >> 1.

The other command lines were >accepted, but I still get the logon failure message. Suggestions? If XP can't access Vista, the problem and the solution are on the Vista computer. In that case, there's no reason to install the resource kit and run the commands on XP. I haven't tried installing the resource kit and running those commands on Vista, and I don't know whether they work on Vista. I recommend posting your question in the Vista networking newsgroup.

Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Steve, I just wanted to let you know that I have also been grappling with this issue for a week now and came across your post. I followed your instructions and IT WORKED! This is awesome. It seems that I had tried everything...I unistalled my Zone Alarm Firewall, I reset registers, re-ran network wizard (it seems a hundred times) and nothing worked until I tried your commands. Thanks for great assistance. I know it's probably not cut and dry but, what can cause this to get hosed up to begin with? I run CA eTrust Anti-virus and Zone Alarm firewall...I just can't understand how something could have slipped through to mess me up. Any ideas so that I can prevent it from happening again? Thanks again...and my wife thanks you as well (it was her laptop that couldn't get to our networked printer).

Thanks again...and my wife thanks you as well (it was her >laptop that couldn't get to our networked printer). You're welcome, Dave! Windows XP Home Edition validates all access requests from other computers via the built-in Guest account. The first "ntrights" command turns on a setting that allows Guest access on the network. The second "ntrights" command turns off a setting that denies Guest access from the network. I don't what causes the problem. I'm not aware of anything built into Windows XP Home Edition that can change those settings, but I see the problem several times a year in the Windows XP networking news group, and it happened once on my computer.
