RE: IFS Problems with Authentication.

Another twist is that the user marks the 'remember password' box and
their 400 password changes (in addition to the user ID becoming disabled
in the IFS).

Also, is this problem consistant across all the IFS shares, the QDLS
share, or a folder in QDLS?

|It's possible for a user to disable Netserver login without

|QSYSOPR and QHST:
|
|User profile xxxxxxx disabled for AS/400 Support for Windows Network
|  Neighborhood access.

|When you try to connect to an IFS drive the PC will

|password you used when you booted or logged in the PC.  If the
|password is different than the AS/400 password it will disable

|password, but Windows 9x requires that your network and AS/400
|i.d. and password match.

|If you change the network password to match the AS/400, you
