I have a couple of users who have an issue with a specific Windows 2000 server on their XP Pro SP2 PCs.

They have full rights to the server but when they try to open the server it prompts them for a password, they enter their username (in the form DOMAIN\username) and their password and they get in fine.

It should not prompt them for a password though and is causing issues.

Thing is on that PC with the same rights a colleague with exactly the same rights can connect no problem without the password prompt.

Also the User can log onto another PC and does not have the problem.

Can anyone help or is this this a complete rebuild job?
 
Managed to figure it out!!

It was a stored password issue with the user.

I Ran the following command

rundll32.exe keymgr.dll,KRShowKeyMgr

Then Removed the offending from the list and it is fine now.

What a nightmare to troubleshoot though!!
