Attempting to change expired passwords on my PWOSF v6.1 PDC from a
Windows 95 client.
I log onto the domain. W95 tells me the password is expired and gives
me the password change box.
I enter old password, new password, new password.
It then tells me that the old password is incorrect !
Now, I did get it right when I entered it. I reset everything and tried
again. Same. I did it again to an NT 4.0 server. Same problem.
So, can anyone tell me whether this is a server problem or a Windows 95
issue ?
Thanks for any info
Alan

| 1737.1 | is this the problem ? | WOTVAX::SHARKEYA | LoginN - even makes the coffee@ | Tue Feb 04 1997 14:28 | 10 |
A thought:
A Stars article indicates that you cannot change the pw of a user where
the PDC is in another subnet (or over the WAN) unless you use the
\\servername syntax of NET PASSWORD.
Could this be the root of the problem ? If so, how d we resolve it ?
