Hi!
I have a question / problem that has probably been posted before. But
nevertheless it still is an issue to me:
A Windows 2000 Professional workstation is a member of an NT4 domain, and on
it is installed a 3rd party VPN client software for remote connectivity. A
domain user account gets access to resources on the domain by logging on
locally using cached credentials, and then establishing a connection through
VPN.
When the password for the cached credential is the same as the one stored in
the domain SAM, things are fine.
BUT when the user say changes his/her password from another workstation,
where he/she is logged on to the domain, the problem arises: If the user
does not remember to update the cached credential on the first machine with
the new password, he/she will be denied access to the domain ressources, the
next time he/she connects through VPN.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to solve this problem (relying on
the user to remember the password change is unfortunately NOT an option![Smile :-) :-)](/styles/default/custom/smilies/smile.gif)
?
best regards
Neil
