Is this the actual error message: "Logon failure: the user has not
been granted the requested logon type at this computer." ?

If so, here are some possible solutions on computer Y. Try each one,
in order, until the problem is fixed:

1. Run the Network Setup Wizard.

2. Type this line at a command prompt, then reboot:

netsh winsock reset catalog

3. Follow these steps to make some required user rights assignments:

a. Download and install the Windows 2003 Server Resource
Kit Tools from http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=4544 .

b . Click Start | All Programs | Windows Resource Kit Tools |
Command Shell.

c. Type these lines at the command prompt. The second and third
commands are case-sensitive, so type them exactly as shown.
Note the "+r" in the second one and the "-r" in the third:

net user guest /active:yes
ntrights +r SeNetworkLogonRight -u Guest
ntrights -r SeDenyNetworkLogonRight -u Guest

The login problem can also be caused by a malicious program called
W32.Spybot.Worm. Update your antivirus program and run a full scan on
Y. This web page has instructions for removing the worm manually:
