Windows default password

Trifid · 16 Jun 2006 at 19:42

I want to connect to a PC on my network, but I do not know the default password that is set on it. This is the password that you do not set. The PC has not been given any log on passwords.

I am unsure how to explain what it is, so a search is turning up log in stuff, which this is not.

Thanks, Trif.

Yes, mainly in frustration.

This is what I am mean by default password:

Default doesn't work.

I know I haven't explained it very well, but it will be the same 'default' password as what I have for my ftp on IIS.

The PC does not have a password and either does mine, but I know there is a way of getting it through the registry.

I don't particually want passwords and to log on, as there isn't any need for home security.

I have that unticked on my PC. Do you want me to tick it? Which PC?

I forgot to mention this earlier, I am on XP Pro and the other PC is home.

Thank you!

Just so I know, is there any security risks with this? Otherwise I will have it enabled all the time when not needed.

Edit: Yeah, that worked.
