I am certainly not an expert, or even a novice, with MSCLIENT, but
the documentation I have for it states that it is not capable of
password encryption. MSCLIENT is an add-on for Windows 3.x to allow
it to talk to Windows for Workgroups. It runs in REAL mode, so will
run under MSDOS, which is how I am booted.

In any case, the machine is not even being found, yet, let alone
rejecting passwords :-)

Thanks for that advice.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
