I have multiple machines. I just have a simple home
network. I ahve turned off fast user switching and
require Ctrl+Alt+Del for login. I have eachin machine
with me a login, however when I connect to different
machines, the suers are different because it is
Machinename/username for the username. I want to ahve 1
login for all 3 machines so when I connect to a shared
resurce that my permissions are recognized by the other
PC's as well. I do not have a domain. All 3 are WinXP
Pro. Can anyone help me with this?

make sure that the workgroup name is the same for all PCs.

Have you tried with same username and same password on all three PCs? You
will have to manually set this up (or check) on all three PCs...

I have not tried to login this way. I will try it when I
get home and post a reply to see if it worked.
