MORE INFORMATION
To cache your Windows NT domain password in Windows 95/98, follow these
steps:
- In Control Panel, double-click the Passwords icon, and then click
Change Windows Password.
- If any check boxes in the Change Windows Password dialog box are
selected, click them to clear them, and then click OK.
- In the Old Password box, type your current Windows password.
Leave the New Password and Confirm New Password boxes empty,
and then click OK.
- Click Close.
- In Control Panel, double-click the Network icon. Make sure that
the Client for Microsoft Networks is installed.
- Double-click Client For Microsoft Networks, click the "Log on to
Windows NT domain" check box to select it, and then click OK.
- In the Primary Network Logon box, click Windows Logon, and then
click OK. When you are prompted to restart your computer, click Yes.
- In the Enter Network Password dialog box, type your Windows NT domain
password in the Password box, click the "Save this password in your
password list" check box to select it, and then click OK.
The next time you start your computer, you will not be prompted for a
password and you will be logged in to the Windows NT domain automatically.
As long as your Windows and Windows NT domain passwords are different,
and Windows Logon remains your primary network logon, you will not be
prompted for either password.
NOTE: The method described in this article does not work if system
policies and user profiles are enabled, and password caching has been
disabled.
