I am trying to network two computers on is set up to
receive the phone call the other on is setup to dial in.
But the computer dialing in is failing on the
authentication and is saying that a bad user name or
password. I have created 2 accounts and have tried the
admin account to no avail. Have granted dial in access
for these accounts. Do I need to use a perticular syntax
since I am refrencing the local account. All computers
are on the same workgroup. Please help really frustrated
a microsoft does not touch on the topic too muck and any
of the associated issues.
