121201 - Talked to Rob Snyder.
121202 -
121203 - Problem #: 368400
121204 -
121205 - Rob suggested trying capital letters for password. I did this and it
121206 - did not work.
121207 -
121208 - We then tried Upper case for just the first letter, and that did not
121209 - work.
121210 -
121211 - We tried poems, with the same three combinations.
121212 -
121213 - Rob feels the system is improperly configured, and so went off line to
121214 - arrange for returning under an RMA to fix the configuration.
121215 -
121216 - He was off-line for about 10 minutes, and during that time, I tried
121217 - entering the password in upper case again. This time the password
121218 - was accepted.
121219 - ..
121220 - Rob then assisted in changing the password to poims, lower case,
121221 - and in setting up Rod Welch as a user.

121229 - We had to first get Administrative Tools to display

121260 - The system booted directly to the desktop, without providing an
121261 - option for selecting the User and entering a password.
121262 -
121263 - To get the logon window to appear, we stepped through the process of
121264 - identifying the network, and saying this is a networked system.

121278 - Rob.

121610 -

121613 - I went through and made this setting for each of the drives on both
121614 - c11 and c12.
121615 -
121616 - This resulted in both computers seeing the other and the drives on
