Hello...I am trying to setup windows media streaming from a windows 8 PC to and Argosy media player. I can get into the workgroup and when I try to go to the shares it asks for authentication. I am not wanting that, but just to have have the player automatically log in. I did have this happening in Windows 7, but it is not working in 8.
So far I have done the following:
1. Enabled file sharing in NIS 2012 and added the media player to my trust control
2. Gone into advanced sharing settings and:
-turned on network discovery
-enabled file and printer sharing
-enabled media streaming
-turned off password protected sharing
3. Gone to my internet connection and enabled sharing
4. Edited my group policy, secpool and registry in the following fashion:

4. Edited my group policy, secpool and registry in the following fashion:
- Click the start button and type secpol.msc in the search function.
- Browse to "Local Policies" -> "Security Options". Now look for the entry "Network Security: LAN Manager authentication level" and open it. Click on the drop down menu and select "Send LM & NTLM - use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated". Apply the settings.
- In the Advanced sharing settings page of Network and sharing center, you need to have it set as Work/Home profile. Try
- Enable network discovery
- Turn on file and print sharing
- Turn off password protected sharing
- Use user accounts and passwords to connect to other computers
- Please check related policies.
- Enter “gpedit.msc” in the Start Search box.
- Open “Computer Configuration”/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Local Policies/Security Settings.
- In the right pane, enable the following policies:
- Network access: Allow anonymous SID/name translation
- Network access: Let Everyone permissions apply to anonymous users
- Also please disable the following policies.
- Network access: Restrict anonymous access to Named Pipes and Shares
- Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts
- Network access: Do not allow anonymous enumeration of SAM accounts and shares
- Reboot PC to activate the new policy
- If the above still does not work, edit the following settings in Registry
- Click Start button and type regedit in Search box and select regedit.exe to execute
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa and change the value as follows
- Right click on "LimitBlankPasswordUse", select Modify and change the value data to 1
- Right click on "NoLmHash", select Modify and change the value data to 0
- Right click on "everyoneincludesanonymous", select Modify and change value data to 1
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\LanmanServer\Parameters, right click on "restrictnullsessaccess" select Modify and change the value data to 0
- Robot the PC again
