Enable the use of blank / null passwords over RDP

Enable the use of blank / null passwords over RDP

This is how to enable the use of blank / null passwords over remote desktop. By default you get an error message if you try to RDP with an account without a password.
This works in Windows XP.

You can disable blank password restrictions by using a policy. To locate and change this policy:

1) Open gpedit.msc, and then click OK to start the Group Policy Editor.
2) Open Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options\Accounts: Limit local account use of blank passwords to console logon only.
3) Double-click Limit local account use of blank passwords to consol logon only.
4) Click Disabled, and then click OK.
5) Quit Group Policy Editor.

Error message:
Unable to Log You on Because of an Account Restriction
