but created an account for her (which has access to the shares).
Okay, that will work but the thing is, she's gotta authenticate with *YOUR BOX* not with the domain. Here's how that works...
When she's part of a domain, her account is part of that domain's database. So the account name is more than just her name, it's the domain PLUS her name, like this:
GirlfriendsDomain\Girlfriend
When she goes to log on to YOUR server, if you don't specify the domain, then it'll assume "GirlfriendsDoman" and not your server. The domain must be the name of bruno's server when she logs in to your server, like so:
BrunosServer\Girlfriend
When the time comes to connect to your server, she'll get prompted in one of two ways. It'll either ask for:
Username:
Password:
Domain:
Or it might just ask for:
Username:
Password:
If it asks for all three, then you log in as:
Username: Girlfriend
Password: GirlfriendsPassword
Domain: BrunosServer
If it only asks for the two, then you log in as:
Username: BrunosServer\Girlfriend
Password: GirlfriendsPassword
That way, it's not confused as to which domain the account is coming from and can log her in without complaining.
