3. 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 one:

net user guest /active:yes

ntrights -r SeDenyNetworkLogonRight -u Guest

Linda said she loved you. I won't go quite so far as to say that, but trust
that I am extremely grateful for your advice. This same problem has dogged me
for months. These three short commands through the Server Resource Kit did
the trick. Thanks!

You're welcome, Lynn. :-)

Steve,
I am getting the same logon failure message when my XP ties to access
the Vista (Vista can access XP though). I have made it down your check list
as far a running the resource kit on the XP. When I type the first command
line I get the message "yes" is not recognized as an internal or external
command, operable program or batch file. The other command lines were
accepted, but I still get the logon failure message. Suggestions?

If XP can't access Vista, the problem and the solution are on the
Vista computer. In that case, there's no reason to install the
resource kit and run the commands on XP.

I haven't tried installing the resource kit and running those commands
on Vista, and I don't know whether they work on Vista.

I recommend posting your question in the Vista networking newsgroup.
