Also, he has user 'test' created with DIFFERENT passwords on these two machines.<BR /> <BR />If he tries to connect from machine1 to machine2 using Start -&gt; Run -&gt; \\machine2 from machine1, machine1 tries to connect to machine2 11 times (!) - we could see this in log on machine2 and only after such attempts the window appears (on machine1) asking for authorization.<BR /> <BR />Could you explain this?<BR /> <BR />Thank you in advance!<BR /> Mon, 15 Aug 2005 04:24:20 GMT Andrey Vasiliev 2005-08-15T04:24:20Z https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-microsoft/11-authorization-attempts-on-standalone-w2k-machines/m-p/3603724#M6444 Hi experts!<BR /> <BR />My friend is asking me about strange behaviour in Windows 2000.<BR /> <BR />He has 2 standalone Windows 2000 workstations.
