Hello,
Hoping someone can help me out on this one. I have a Windows 2003 Server and a Windows XP machine. Peer-peer using TCP/IP.
I am getting error "the referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged onto" when trying to browse my Windows2000 Server machine from the XP machine. I found article 816118 in the MS Knowledgebase. I remember messing with routing and remote access. So I go into the registry and make sure that the lockout is disabled. It is. Then I go and stop/remove the entry out of routing and remote access.
Any other thoughts as to what may be giving me this error message? All user accounts are enabled. None are locked out. I got this feeling that "user" accounts has nothing to do with this anyways.

The TCP/IP peer to peer is only an issue if your cable is wrong or your drivers for the nic don't work to correct straight through cables. The things I read say that you either put in the wrong password enough to cause a lockout or some problem with a COM object???

Finally got it working.
I dont really know what i did. I made sure that the O.S.'s firewalls were not on. I deleted my server out of routing and remote access. I then added it back. Deleted it one more time. My Server machine had netbios over tcp/ip. I changed that to Default.
I also made some changes in the registry: Q816118... I set both values to 0. Also some thing I added to the registry. Now i forget what it is.
I should have made the changes one at a time to pinpoint it. I really think though the routing and remote access messed things up.
