Internet and limited Guest accounts
i have a similar problem. on the guest account, it'll
say it cannot find a connectoid. i did nothave a problem w/ aol before. (i don't want to go back to AOL, though.) has somebody tried to contact you with the solution? i tried to change settings from the "administrator" account but cannot figure out how to do so. -----Original Message----- After I set up a dialup connection using the Owner/Administrator account (specifying that this connection will be used by all users) when I create a limited access Guest account cannot log on to the internet using the Guest account. While logged on like Guest, I see the default connection but when I click on it nothing happens. Also when I check the connections tab for internet properties I do not see the default connection either. I cannot add the connection (manually or with the Wizard) because I get either a 'Cannot load the Remote Access Connection Manager Service. Error:5 Access is denied.' (using the manual setup) or 'You are currently logged in as a limited user. Please log in as administrator in order to run the New Connection Wizard.' . |

Internet and limited Guest accounts
Guest accounts can't dial or hang-up Internet connections. Either switch
to always-on broadband or create a Limited Account for guest Internet access. Yes, yes, I know it's stupid, especially since the Help files say you can use Guest for Internet access. Everyone at Microsoft forgot long ago that other people still use dial-up. -- Kent W.
