I have installed a Microsoft client on the WIN 95 machines and I need to know how the users can change their passwords without assistance. I know on NT workstations you type ctrl-alt-delete. But you know what that does to WIN 95. Please help!!
 
Try: Start - Control Panel - Passwords. Hope this helps.
 
tried that, it brought up Windows and Novell, but not NT even though I was logged into the NT server, that didn't do it! I wish it were that simple! Any other suggestions?!
 
Have you tried logging off then log on as a different user. Go to shut down but select the option "close all programs and log on as a different user." This will give the user the chance to chose another password to log onto windows.
 
Check the user properties under NT's user manager and make suer "user cannot change password" is not checked.<br>

I looked again at control panel - passwords - change other passowrds and it allows the user to change the microsoft networking password there. Is client for micorsoft networks installed in control panel - network - configuration?
