SYMPTOMS
When you start Outlook 98, you may be prompted for your logon credentials.
The Logon dialog box has a Change Password button to allow the user to
change their Windows NT password. If the selected profile is configured to
use DPA (Distributed Password Authentication), the Change Password button
will allow a user to modify the Windows NT password, even though they are
not using Windows NT for authentication. This can cause confusion for the
novice user.
CAUSE
The routine that displays the Logon dialog box is not aware of the various
authentication packages.
