Is it possible that the users that only have to sign on once have the
same user id for windows as they do for the AS/400?  And maybe even the
same password?  And those that have to sign on multiple times don't?  I
forget the details in password caching in W2K, but as a matter of
course, when I change my AS/400 password, I also change my W2K password
to be the same.
