Remote Desktop - interactive logon not permitted

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

I recently upgraded a W2K sp4 system to XP Pro sp1 so that I
could use Remote Desktop. I enabled Remote Desktop on XP
Pro and configured remote users.

When I try to connect from any computer running Remote Desktop
client or XP Pro I get the following error message: "The local policy of this system does not permit
you to logon interactively".

I have tried to login using both the Remote Id and the Administrator
Id. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
