SYMPTOMS

When you attempt to log on to a Microsoft Windows NT domain from a Windows 95-based computer, you may receive the following error message:

   The domain password you supplied is not correct,
   or access to your logon server has been denied.

  1. Right-click the Network Neighborhood icon on the desktop, and then click Properties.

  2. Click the Identification tab.
