The information in this article applies to:
SYMPTOMSYou are prompted for a password when connecting to a Windows NT computer while using a network dynamic data exchange (DDE) application. CAUSE
"Logon to" restrictions are implemented such that user A can only log on to
workstation A. User B logs on to workstation B, but no "Logon to"
restrictions are placed on this user. A network DDE application is then
started on both workstations. When workstation A attempts to dial
workstation B through the network DDE application, User A is prompted for a
password. If any valid non-administrative user and password is used, the
connection fails with an "Invalid Password" pop-up error message.
RESOLUTION
Remove "Logon To" account restrictions for the user account that originates
the connection.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Windows NT
versions 3.51 and 4.0. We are researching this problem and will post new
information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
