At work, I've been asked to set up a Guest account on a machine where I have admin access. The Guest account has been enabled, but whenever someone tries it the message "local policy does not allow you to login interactively" pops up. I've enabled Guests to login through terminal services in the local policy, but the problem persists. I don't deal with user accounts very much, how am I supposed to fix this?
Thanks

This may help

Terminal Services - The local policy of this system does not allow you to log in interactively.

Actually, it was even simpler than that- a previous user had disabled local guest login. Stupid me for not catching it...
