| Thanks, Marin's suggestions worked for me. Unfortunately the command
prompt
| will only change it on the domain. We have a server that isn't on our
| domain and are not allowed to join it to the domain. So when our password
| changes on the domain we have to change it on the server. His suggestion
of
| the ctl-alt-delete and putting in the NetBIOS name worked perfectly.
