But I would prefer not to have the same password for both admin accounts, but appearently, I don't have a choice

there definitely is a choice in this matter, there's just some small thing we are not thinking of. /pooism think think pooism/

did you get this solved

listen this usually occurs when there is no similarities with current logon user (username/password) between the system u are connecting from and the one u r connecting to.

so make sure for the currently logged on user there exist one with the same username/password on the pc u'r conecting to if u'r not using AD

however the easiest thing to do would be Active Directory + security policy settings.

Try this... Control Panel -> Admin Tools -> Local Security Poilicy. Open up Local Policies then click open User Rights Assignment. Look at the "Access this Computer from the network". If its a home network behind a firewall/router I just open it wide open and add "Everyone" to this policy. Works everytime....

Could MS have screwed NTFS permissions more without giving the Everyone group inheritable full control rights by default?

:P
