- Microsoft File and Print Services for NetWare 3.51
This article was previously published under Q148353
SYMPTOMS
If you connect to more than one NetWare or File and Print Services for
NetWare (FPNW) computer and run the CHGPASS command on a NetWare client
computer, an "Access Denied" error message appears using Directory Services
Manager for NetWare (DSMN).
CAUSE
CHGPASS tries to change the password for each of the computers you are
currently logged on and attached. The password change takes effect the
first time, but subsequent attempts to change the password fail with
"Access Denied" as the old password is no longer correct. The password is
successfully changed on the Primary Domain Controller (PDC). Logging
out and then back in with the new password proves this.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in File and Print Services for
NetWare version 3.51. This problem was corrected in the latest Windows NT
3.51 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining the Service Pack,
