zero or change username & password for a connection to another computer on the local network?

When you open the network, and see you computers and or network for the Working Group action, well, I entered accidentally the wrong username / password for the computer, and I can't seem to change the username-password and or reset it.

On the local network, I have a linux machine using samba, all permissions are correct, since the box vista * can * connect just fine and have access to everything which, however, on the vista box, I checked still remember the name of user and password, and now I can't change it on another account, I need to take it.

I have searched for hours and I can't seem to find the answer.

I tried to disable the account on the linux side and this does not, however, so, he says: "access denied", with no way to enter a new username / password!

Anyone has an idea on how to solve this problem?

Finally found the answer.

In the cmd prompt, (Administrator rights), making control userpasswords2, and then tap the Advanced tab and finally, the button manage passwords.

  • Ipad Cisco ipsec VPN connects but not access to the local network

    Hi guys,.

    I am trying to connect our ipads to vpn to access network resources. IPSec cisco ipad connects but not lan access and cannot ping anything not even not the interfaces of the router.

    If I configure the vpn from cisco on a laptop, it works perfectly, I can ping all and can access resources on the local network if my guess is that the traffic is not going in the tunnel vpn between ipad and desktop.

    Cisco 877.

    My config is attached.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you

    Build-in iPad-client is not useful to your configuration.

    You have three options:

    (1) remove the ACL of your vpn group. Without split tunneling client will work.

    2) migrate legacy config crypto-map style. Here, you can use split tunneling

    3) migrate AnyConnect.

    The root of the problem is that the iPad Gets the split tunneling-information. But instead of control with routing traffic should pass through the window / the tunnel and which traffic is allowed without the VPN of the iPad tries to build a set of SAs for each line in your split-tunnel-ACL. But with the model-virtual, SA only is allowed.

  • to connect to another computer in the same room

    How can I connect to the computer in the same room, I have broadband and use an adapter to run two computers. I want to be able to see what's been done on the other computer

    Hello

    The easiest way is with a crossover cable - a special wire to connect the two systems.
    You can get one at your local computer store - they are not expensive.

    You can also configure an ad - hoc network that looks to use the cable above in that it
    only connects the two machines directly however by wireless.

    Do you already use a router?  If so you can network through it.

  • I'd like to find the password to let someone from another computer using my wifi network?

    I can no longer leave someone visiting my house to my WiFi network because I can't find the password.  I don't know how to reset the password either.  Help! I have a lot of family who visit with computers.

    If you have a wireless device running Windows 7 that can access your wifi connection, click the icon wireless in the notification area. Right-click on the name of your wireless network, and then click Properties. On the Security tab, check the box "Show characters" to reveal the password. If you have never changed the password, it will probably be printed on a label on the router.

    To reset the password of your router, you must locate the manual for it. He has been provided by your ISP, their website will have details.

  • I can't connect to another computer on my home network

    I can't connect to my desktop PC to my laptop on my home network. Until a few weeks ago, I had no problem.

    • There are several disks on the desktop, none of which is available.
    • Both devices are running Windows 7 Ultimate.
    • I can connect to my laptop from my desktop but not the reverse.

    The Network Diagnostics tool tells me that my laptop seems to be configured correctly. The message is "Windows cannot communicate with the device or resource" followed by the name of the desktop in parentheses.

    I use Norton 360 (completely up to date) on each device and I checked the firewall on both settings. Remote connection is not available, no more, even if it is allowed on the desktop.

    I hope you can provide a solution. If any additional information is needed, please let me know.

  • get internet connection through another computer...

    Hello

    I would go straight to the point :)

    I have a desktop running windows vista. I have a normal internet connection through a router that connects to the internet on this desktop computer.

    now, I also have a laptop with windows xp and here is what I do. my laptop's wireless was always bothers me, sometimes it connects, sometimes it doesn't work out... so I saw that there is an Ethernet card installed in the laptop with an Ethernet port.

    My question is this:

    I have a lot of Ethernet cables at home and I was wondering if there is a way to get internet to my laptop via the Ethernet port on my desktop, but without needing the desktop computer to be running, cause I only use my laptop these days and my router is too far to connect from my room. I hope you understand my problem. In theory, I think it's possible to do, but I'm not sure how, so please help me on this one. my laptop also has firewire, but I prefer ethernet for some reason any.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Sorry, but you cannot get a connection via another computer if the computer is off.

    I'm not sure that I understand completely the topology.  However, if the office is connected by cable to a router for Internet connection, you can solve the problem by buying a simple network switch.

    You take the cable from the desktop and connect to the switch. Then you plug the desktop and laptop computer at the switch.

    That this switch network does, it divides a cable to feed many computers.

    Example of a switch that can be connected with a cable to a router and feed 5 computers.

  • How can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not the master password for the Firefox links saves itself)

    (1) how can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not my main password for things Firefox stores)
    (2) how can I change my password for connection of Thunderbird? (Not my master

    Just answer (Email removed by mod)

    You don't have to log in to Firefox. Firefox is just a browser, such as Internet Explorer. Everything you have to do is double-click it and open it. It's like Internet Explorer. If you have some sort of password extension protecting your Firefox, it's different and you need to contact the developer of the extension.
