Configure security settings
If you run the Host on Windows XP, you may need to modify security settings according
to the following procedure:
1 Select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools.
2 Double-click Local Security Policy.
3 Set the following in Security Settings > Local Policies > Security Options:
Set the Network Access: Sharing and Security model for local accounts policy to
Classic. You can set the value for this item by double-clicking it, and selecting Classic
from the list.
Optionally, set the Accounts: limit local account use of blank passwords to console
logon only policy to disabled if you want to be able to use blank passwords to connect to
this Host computer.
NOTE: This is a significant security risk and is NOT recommended.
