SYMPTOMS
When you try to change a Windows NT password with the Microsoft Exchange
Client, the change fails to work using TCP/IP. The client error message may
be:
The NT Domain password could not be changed. A required action was not
successful due to an unspecified error.
CAUSE
If the primary domain controller (PDC) has the NetWareClientSupport
registry value specified for the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\LSA key, but the NWLINK
protocol is not installed on the PDC, LSASS will not attempt to register a
socket endpoint on TCP/IP.
RESOLUTION
Remove the registry value NetWareClientSupport if NWLINK is not installed
on the PDC.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.51. We
are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
