Hi evryone,

Here is my problem.

Server A
Machine logged in with UserA Password1
DirectoryA shared giving access to user UserA Password1

Server B
Machine logged in with UserA Password2
DirectoryA accessed via a mapped drive or Network neighbourhood
I was prompted for the user name and Password (I used UserA Password1)

We wanted to make the password the same on both machines.

So I disconnected any mapped drive/directory appearing under Network Places
on Server B (logically it should have removed any reference to Server A
beeing associated with UserA Password1)
I disabled the share on Server A
I changed the password on Server A so that it would use UserA Password2
I reset the share giving access to UserA Password2

Then I went to reconnect to the Share from Server B.
I am told access denied because the User name and Password associated with
Server A is not correct.

I am thinking that somewhere on Server B the old password is till associated
with UserA Password1, cached maybe.

There were no mapped drives related to Servert 1 before I changed the
password.

Questions:

How can I find this "hidden" association between Server A and "UserA
Password1"? And how can I reset it to accept the new password?

Thank you for any suggestion you may provide!!!

Corinne
