Re: NT4 password limited to 14 characters ?

Hi Slav,

That is the size W2k and later if not in unicode, but it
seems the UI is now all unicode, hence 127.

NT 4 was much more limited, 14 sounds around right.

Dare to experiment?
I think Roger mentioned the other day that it can be up to 254 ASCII
characters.

Hi,

sorry for this "noob" question but is there a password limit on NT4 SP6a
?

Indeed, I am not able to define a password that has more than 14
characters length.

SOmetimes I am reading that the limit is 128 characters and sometimes it
is 14 characters.

Please someone could help me ? :)

Thank you
