I'm guessing you're not using 128 character passwords...
In which case, the i requires an alpha character at the start...
Some vague quirk in the OS allows you to enter a numeric, but it is ignored.
So if you enter "1password" it is the same as entering "password"
So you're users password on Windows is "1password" but on the i it is
"password", but the i accepts "1password". However, when sending it
for the QNTC connection teh i is only sending "password".

All,--
Can someone confirm or tell me if you've run into this. A user changed her
System i and Windows passwords. They match, but start with a digit. She
can sign on to both Windows and the System i with this password.
*BUT* there is a job she runs once a day that copies 3 PDFs from the IFS to
a windows share via the QNTC route. It's worked fine for many months until
2 days ago when she changed her password to START with a digit. The W2008
Security event viewer says it's the wrong password. Could it be that
Netserver (or whatever it is on the System i that supplies the password)
cannot handle a password starting with a digit?
Thanks.
