My computer is running Vista Home Premium and i cannot connect to a mac
through the network. I have tried most things, but unfortunately home
premium lacks some certain features i.e. unable to access the Local Security
Policy. Whenever i attempt to access their computer it tells me my logon is
incorrect.

can anyone help?

1. run regedit
2 Find the key
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa
3. Set LmCompatibilityLevel to 1
