Tom,
You are right that in NT 4.0 the dll FPNWCLNT is in default included in the
list of Notification Packages at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Notification
Packages, but isn't included in the system\win32 folder ( I think) so that
the registry edit doesn't point to anything - The .dll is supplied by
Novell.
One of the long established password gathering techniques was to create a
dll called FPNWCLNT that all it did was to alert the craker to the username
as password just changed.
Regards, Edward Petrie-Smith,

Tom,
Isn't the DLL you're referring to installed by default
on NT Server? I think it's actually called
"FPNWCLNT.DLL", and is in the "Notification Packeges"
key.
