I had a problem setting up servers alive to check for running processes on some 
Windows XP machines. Despite the fact that I was using the correct username & 
password, I would always get access denied error messages. 
 
It wasn't a Servers Alive problem because I also couldn't do "net use 
\\ipaddress\ipc$ (file://\\ipaddress\ipc$) /user:administrator" to the XP 
machine either. 
 
What cured it for me was doing this on the XP machine : 
 
Administrative tools...local security policy..security options 
  "Network access sharing and security model for local accounts"  there are 2 
options, it was set to 'guest only', I changed it to 'classic' 
 
Saw a few postings in the archive for similar problems, so thought I would send 
this through. Let me know if you think this is a security risk - but it worked 
for me !
