Greetings Dave,
You didn't mention what OS the computer you're trying to access is
running. Seems to me that the computer you're trying to access
doesn't have an account setup on it for your win2k sp2 computer.
That's basically it. You can make an account with the same username
and password that you use to log on to the win2k sp2 computer and that
SHOULD do it for you.
disclaimer: the above comments are probably wrong :)
