How To Change Password
I would like to change the password that I use when I boot the computer.
I am running XP/Home Edition Version 2002 SP 2. I checked Help. It says gives two different procedures: 1. when the computer is a member of a workgroup and not a member of a domain 2. when the computer is a member of a domain I don't know which case applies. This is essentially a stand alone computer (it is on a peer-to-peer network but it will soon be removed from the network). How can I find out which case applies? Thanks in advance. |

How To Change Password
If you were a member of a Domain, you would be aware of the password you
needed for that. If you want to look at the setting for your Workgroup, look at: Press WinKey-Break,(or start/run 'sysdm.cpl'), Computer Name Tab, click Change button -- click the Ratings button. Voting helps the web interface. http://www.microsoft.com/wn3/locales...help_en-us.htm see ''rate a post'' Mark L. Ferguson "VFP Developer" wrote in message ...

How To Change Password
I followed the procedure for case 1 (not in a domain). That did the trick.
Thanks! "Mark L. Ferguson" wrote in message ... If you were a member of a Domain, you would be aware of the password you needed for that.
