I believe that many people have the same experience as the author. The network settings made up of WIN XP are exactly the same as those of WIN 2000, but there is still a situation that cannot be accessed at all. I think this Mainly because XP's security settings are different from 2000. In response to this problem, the author checked some information on the Internet and tested various common solutions provided online. Now I will introduce it to everyone, I hope that I can help the users who have encountered this problem, and please continue to give pointers to the experts. .
First of all, physical connections and other issues are not considered here, only strategic issues are discussed. In addition, please install the corresponding protocol and set the IP address correctly, and try to set the computer in a working group and have the IP address of the same network segment.
Secondly, there are many descriptions of the problems on the Internet, so I won’t repeat them here. Please consider the following steps when there is a problem with sharing and access:
1. Check if the guest account is enabled.
XP does not open the guest account by default, so for others to browse your computer, please enable the guest account. . At the same time, for security, please set a password or corresponding permission for the guest. Of course, you can also set a username and password for each machine so that computers can access each other.
2. Check if the Guest is denied access to the local machine from the network
When you open the guest account but still can't access it at all, please check if the setting is to refuse the guest to access the computer from the network, because XP does not allow the guest by default. Log in from the network, so even if you open the guest, you can't access it. Unlock the Guest account when the system Guest user is enabled, click “Start →Run”, in the "Run” dialog box, enter “GPEDIT.MSC” to open the Group Policy Editor, in turn Select “Computer Configuration & Rarr; Windows Settings & Rarr; Security Settings & Rarr; Local Policies & Rarr; User Rights Assignment & rdquo;, double-click "Reject access to this computer from the network" strategy, delete the "GUEST" account. In this way, other users can use the Guest account to access the computer using the Windows XP system through the network.
3. Change the network access mode
XP defaults to all users who log in from the network are processed according to the guest account, so even if the administrator logs in from the network, it only has the guest's permission, if it encounters the inaccessible situation Please try changing the access mode of the network. Open the Group Policy Editor, select “Computer Configuration →Windows Settings →Security Settings→Local Policies→Security Options", double-click "Network Access: Local Account Sharing and Security Mode” Policy, Default Set “only guest & mdash; local user since guest authentication & rdquo;, change to “ classic: local users authenticate with their own & rdquo;.
This way you can log in to the computer you want to access by entering your local account and password, even if you don't open the guest. The local account and password are the accounts and passwords already on the computer you want to access. If you need an account and password to access the network, you can log in by entering the account and password already on the computer you want to access.
If you don't change the access mode, you may not be able to enter the username and password. //computername/guest is grayed out. Even if the password is empty, you can't make sure to log in without opening the guest. Change to the classic mode, at least as long as the case of not opening the guest account in 2000, you can enter the user name and password to log in to the computer you want to enter. Maybe you will also encounter a special situation, please see the next one.
