The system could not log you on. &nbsp;Make sure your user name and domain are correct (did try with user domain) then type your password again. &nbsp;I reset the password again just to make sure I knew it correctly.

My company set up a new user on W2003server and gave it all rights as administator. &nbsp;The server is set up with workgroup, not domain, so can't give it domain user, but gave it everything else listed except user/power user.<br />
It will not let that user log on. &nbsp;Any ideas appreciated.

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
