Does anyone know how to disable the security messages that come up in XP.
I am running the latest Novell Client and have chosen not to list a default Windows username. This forces the user to log on to the workstation as well as the server.
Problem come up that I get a pop up window that states:
WINDOWS SECURITY WARNING
Your user account has been disabled.
Contact your System Administrator
I know it is seeing the Novell Login as the default Windows XP Guest user account and therefore causing the error message to pop up. How do I get rid of it??

I believe I saw a patch that does that. Go to Windows update. See what it recommends. If the patch is not there, go to the Products Catalog (on the left of the screen [you may ahve to go into options to see it]), and go search for the patch that turns it off.
If I am wrong with the patch, it may be a tweaking file. I have a few XP tweak sites, one is tweakxp.com. I can send others if the patch is not the answer, but I am pretty there is a XP patch.
