Account Passwords
I set 2 accounts up on my buddies home pc using xp professional. an administrator account which is my buddies mom's account and his sister's account with limited access. I need to set it up so that if you choose the admin account it will prompt for a password instead of just logging in. I heard of a command called "CONTROL USERPASSWORDS2" without the quotes and wasnt sure if this was the way to go about it? Thanks1 person got this answerI do too

All you need to do is assign a password to the administrator account from Control Panel>User Accounts. Do this from the mom's account. You don't need to use the control userpasswords2 command but here is a link explaining it: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Autologon.htm MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
