Er, I mean Help!
Bought mrs.D a 'new' (/off-lease) pc with windows 7 home fule edition preinstalled. I can't get it to log onto the old pc (running w2k) because of some weird workgroup shite. The workgroup defined on the old pc is "HOME", and that's what I set the new one to. But when I open the Network and Sharing Center it is showing "Workgroup: WORKGROUP" at the bottom. WTF. Well, I can see the old pc on the network, but when I try to login with known good credentials for a couple of users, it always rejects the password. Moreover, it insists on pasting her new computer name as a "domain" in front of whatever user name I happen to enter. WTF. But wait, there's more: when I browse the network from my linux boxen, it is now showing 2 workgroups: "HOME" and "WORKGROUP". How fucked up is that?
Scream shots to cum...
