Using networked Win2k dial-up networking to connect to a stand alone Win98 that has dialup server running. I always get a message "Your credentials have faile remote network authentication. Enter a user name and password with access to the remote network domain. The remote is not part of the domain. I can log on from a Win98 without fail. I have Allow unsecured password checked on the Security tab in properties for the dial up on my Win2k laptop. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Need some more info. For instance are you using a null modem cable, or are you literally trying to dial in over POTS using a different phone line? What server software are you using to allow Win98 to accept dial-up logins?

I'm dialing over POTS to a Win98 system running DUN 1.3 with dial up server running. I've been successful dialing from other computers running Win98, Win95 and Win ME, but not with my laptop running Windows 2000 Professional. I've double-checked that the protocols on each machine are the same. My laptop is part of a domain and the Win98 machine is a stand alone running in a sand pit scalehouse. It's like the domain authentication gets in the way. The stand alones(we have many) are not partof the domain and probably never will.
