Remote Desktop without password

[snowdog]

Hello,

I have Vista ultimate on my pc and I'd like to be able to connect to it with my mums lappy with xp, it's fine with the connection itself as when I type the name of my pc ( Snowdogs-pc ) i get to a vista style login screen, but when I click my name I get asked for a password, while I don't use one...
Typing no password and pressing enter makes it say incorrect password.
Works fien when I do use a password.

The same thing happens with my dads pc ( altho he's on xp pro) when I try to connect to him. Same thing that it works when he does set a password.

Thing is, neither me not him can be arsed to have a password, yet we want to be connactable through remote desktop.

Is there any setting to allow windows remote control without having a password on your user account ?

It's an important security feature, if you find a way of doing otherwise you deserve all you get
What's your IP address?

In all seriousness, use something like VNC and keep the session open all the time if you must. ><

192.168.1.10 , and that's all you'll get...

What, another security feature I don't need, in all honesty, my and my dad's pc are a bit ''hard'' to steal physically, we don't need passwords.

As for others trying a remote connection: I have 2 firewalls, both a NAT hw firewall ( with the remote control port not opened in any way), and the vista software firewall, I highly doubt anyone will break through that, and if they will, they can't steal any ''precious'' data any way (as I have none) and if I notice anything suspicious, I reboot and select XP instead ( which is on a diff hdd anyway if they try formatting vista, lol, the master boot record and the boot loader are on a diff hdd than vista too) and there I do have a passy so at least xp is controllable with remote desktop ( although tweakxp logs me in automatically so I don't have to type in the bloody passy at least on bootup.). But xp would recover any damage done in a possible but highlt unlikely attack.


So, how can I disable this annoying and utterly and uninportant useless security feature ?

how about setting passwords on both, and then setting them to automatically logon? (you'll still have to enter a password for RDC)

That would work for me, I have that in xp, how do I enable auto login on vista ?
My dad is another person though, he never shuts his pc down and always uses standby, he hates any place where he has to use passwords, passwords after standby is a big no no for him and a major annoyance.
