Not sure of all the detail here but it sounds like you have a few possible
issues:
- administrative shares are disabled
- File and printer sharing is not installed or enabled
- remote services are not running or disabled on the target machines
- you have no local administrator rights (since you have not described your
network (peer2peer or domain), it would be difficult to help with this issue
- if the machines came pre-configured way back when and do not conform to
your other machines, why not just rebuild one of them the way you want and
then use that image to deploy the remaining two machines? It might be
quicker than trying to figure out how somebody customized the machines
before they were shipped. The conflicting credentials error suggests the
machines might not even have unique SID's, which could lead to even bigger
problems.
"Computer Administration??' sorry, unfamiliar term. How exactly are you
trying to remote control the machines?
