Thanks to all who responded to my posting.  It looks like the problem was with the manual mappings.  Didn't even have to disconnect the drives just double click on them to reestablish the connection and voilas. Issue resolved!   Thanks again.   Juan -----Original Message----- From: Bjelke John A Contr AFRL/VSIO [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 7:12 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Authentication Problems. Another possibility is that manual mappings to shared drives were done under an old password, and the system stored that in the registry. Disconnect the network drives and then reconnect. We do our standard mappings in the login script, and strongly discourage manual mappings to resources for this reason. A number of lock-out problems can be traced to this type of issue. A good trick is to have your login script disconnect mappings from a certain drive letter on up, e.g. L through Z. This also gives you a "reserved" range of drive letters for your standard network resources. Hope this helps!          John A.

Looking into my crystal ball.....   You're using downlevel (i.e. pre-Win2k) clients, and have enabled password complexity requirements. This was done after creating non-complex passwords for the users.   Either disable password complexity, or reset their passwords to something meeting complexity requirements, then force them to change the password. I ran into it during my second AD migration.     -------------------------------------------------------------- Roger D.

Hello to all,   I am experiencing the following problem at a client.   We forced all employees to change their password, by going to AD users and computers and checking the box "user must change password at next logon"   It appeared that everything worked fine until we started noticing that while working at a computer and trying to access a share an error message popped up. Your password is incorrect and it wouldn't take the new password.   We forced a sync with all the DCs and still getting same errors.   Please help.   Juan
