Log in as?

This is a discussion about Log in as? in the Legacy OS category; Is there a way to log in as a certain person on Win9x the same way you can in Win2k? (such as log in under my account on a remote machine without rebooting, using a connect as in Network neighborhood)

If it is a stand alone PC, I think if you go into to control panels and then users you can set up different users for the PC. Not positive as I have never personally tried it. If it is a network then the users need to be configured on the PC acting as the server.

Yes, 9x has user profiles. They are not as locked down as NT but they can have their own desktop settings.

OP
I meant without setting your own account
 
for example, I want to know if I can go to some users computer where I do not have a profile(and don't want one on there), and need to access my PC for one reason or another....
 
with 2k, you have to log in as a person...so I need to know how to do that(without programs).

are you referring to file sharing from a Win98 machine to a Win2k machine?
 
or are you referring to remote desktop?
