You're right, Jeff, this is different in Windows 95/98/ME and NT/2K?XP. The latter have a different security mechanism, does not have password caching as the former do. There's a lot if info in the Express User Guide - under Index search for "password cach".

Here's a bit on simulating the caching of 9x in NT, etc.:

This command can be used on Windows NT/2000 to simulate persistent password caching. Persistent password caching (which remembers passwords across restarts of the operating system) is only supported on Windows 95/98/Me, so in most cases this command would not be necessary on those operating systems. Running a batch file at Windows NT/2000 startup (containing CWBLOGON invocations) could be used to prime the Client Access Express password cache allowing automatic AS/400 connections to be made.
Of course, having CWBLOGON in a batch file also means the password is there, so a security exposure exists.

Now V5R2 is supposed to have this Enterprise Identity Management thing, right? Whatever it's called. Maybe that'd help. Is it actually there and has anyone used it?

Vern

In Windows 98, if you went to Settings, Control Panel, Passwords, there
was a button to "Change Other Passwords" which would list Novell any
AS/400's installed.  Also, if you changed Windows password, you'd get a
dialog asking if you wanted to change your password on other systems as
well.  This seems to have disappeared in Windows 2000.
