Windows 95hopefully someone here can help me out? One of my locations recently migrated to a 2003 ad enviroment and many of their workstations are loaded with windows 95. Here is his question: Maryville has a number of factory PCs that connect to older equipment and which are running Windows 95 and need access to the network. We installed DS Client for window 95 on these PCs back when we did the AD migration and this allowed them to login into the HI domain. Today, a user called saying that after he changed his password he was no longer able to log in into the Windows 95 PCs anywhere. He gets the message: “the domain password you supplied is not correct or access to your logon server has been denied†If he tries this too many times, his account gets locked out. Have there been any policy changes on the DC that could be causing this? Any other accounts that have not changed passwords are able to login without a problem. I went to check the problem and was able to login with my admin account; then I changed the password on my account and could not log in either after that. This can become a critical issue since they need these legacy PCs on the network for production. Thanks for the help in advance!

"public.win95" "public.win98" You will get more relevant newsgroups than you can poke a stick at. By the way, isn't it time to replace this antiquated and unsupported operating system with something more up-to-date and far more stable? The issue with upgrading is my admin has legacy apps that will only work with
95.

Most
likely they will still run on Windows2000,...and in many cases they will even run on XP if you set the Compatibiliy Mode in the properties of the Apps executable. I have run many old things designed for Win95 on an XP machine. In some cases it was only the Apps installation program that would refuse to run and not the App itself,...so I installed it on an old Win9x first then just copies the File Tree over to the XP machine,...set the Compatibility to what it needed in th eproperties of the executable and it worked. If registry entries are required (often they really aren't) they can be exported from the old machine and imported into XP with Regedit via *.reg text files. Try it rather than just taking the vendors word for it. Also if the vendor wants to stay in business,...they need to bring their product out of the dark ages. -- Show quoteHide quotePhillip Windell The views expressed, are my own and not those of my employer, or Microsoft, or anyone else associated with me, including my cats. ----------------------------------------------------- "Techdewd49" <Techdew***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:4E24D64D-5523-47DF-93AD-48B409FC2BA2@microsoft.com... > The issue with upgrading is my admin has legacy apps that will only work > with > 95. > > "Pegasus [MVP]" wrote: > >> >> "Techdewd49" <Techdew***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:149A51B8-016F-4A33-9828-B124C0DA953C@microsoft.com... >> >I know this is a Win 2000 forum, but since there is nothing for Windows >> >95 >> > hopefully someone here can help me out? >> > >> > One of my locations recently migrated to a 2003 ad enviroment and many >> > of >> > their workstations are loaded with windows 95.
