The information in this article applies to:

 * Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.51, 4.0
 * Microsoft Windows NT Server, Enterprise Edition version 4.0

SYMPTOMS
If you use a Windows 95-based computer using the Novell intraNetWare client to log on to a Novell NetWare server on a Windows NT domain with an expired NetWare password, you may not be able to synchronize all passwords when you change your NetWare password. If you try to synchronize all passwords when you change your password, the NetWare and Windows passwords may be changed, but not the Windows NT domain password.

CAUSE
This problem occurs when the intraNetWare logon is the primary logon for the Windows 95 client, and the intraNetWare client attempts to change (and synchronize) the passwords at logon.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this issue, obtain the updated files documented in the following articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

Q198035 User Profiles Not Copied to Server with Updated Mprserv.dll File

Q188206 "Access Denied" Connecting to Windows NT Server with Many Shares In addition to the files listed above, you need the following updated files from Novell:

  Lgnw9532.dll Nwpasswd.dll Refer to "95250p1.exe; Password Sync Fix for 95 Client" from Novell.

Refer to Novell Knowledge Base article 2944003, "Unable to Change Password on Using 95/98 GUI."

Note that this resolution works only if the IntraNetWare client is set as your primary network logon.
