Enterprise Manager loses registration on password reset 1

[GabeC]

I am running Enterprise Manager 8.0 on XP. Every time I reset my Windows password, all of my database registrations are lost and I have to go in and add back all the servers. This happens to my co-workers too.

Any idea how to prevent this? I have searched on Google, as have my co-workers, but we have not found a solution.

Thanks


Thanks,

They are stored here if it helps:


HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\SQLEW\Registered Servers X\

Seems to have got this from MS Group.

"MasterKeyLegacyNt4Domain" is set on the Windows XP machine. This will
enable legacy mode on a NT4 domain:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography\Protect\Providers\df9d8c
d0-1501-11d1-8c7a-00c04fc297eb]
"MasterKeyLegacyNt4Domain"
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 00000001

Thanks Jamfool.

That makes things even more interesting. All my registered servers are listed in this registry key, but they don't get listed when opening Enterprise Manager.

Thanks,

Gabe
