View Full Version : XP forgets user passwords

I admin 25 computers at a high school. We have set up
local user accounts on each machine for the kids that sit
there during the day. There is a "Teacher" account which
is an admin, there is a general "Student" account, then
there are the individual student accounts on each
computer (about 4 per computer). A few of the computers
will all of a sudden forget the passwords. When you try
to log-in using the password, it just brings up the msg
asking if you've forgotten your p-word. This occurs to
all the accounts EXCEPT the teacher account. I've tried
to us mmc to fix this by just setting a new p-word, but
it won't remember it, or apply it. Is this some kind of
glitch, or is it something I've done or not doing?
