I had used the updatepw function. Showpw is telling me that there is no password in the registry for that node. One of the servers having this problem is actually a cluster node. Showpw shows a password for the clustered servers, but not for any of the cluster group nodes. I will have to contact the admin of the other W2K server to have him try the command on that server.

Also, verify that there is not a nodename specification in your DSM.opt that is different than what you are expecting. -----Original Message----- From: Weeks, Debbie [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 9:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: W2000 client passwords I now have two W2K clients that cannot be backed up by automated backups because somehow the password has become corrupted. I have done everything I can think of short of deleting or renaming the node in TSM. I have deleted the service, uninstalled the client software, edited the registry and manually removed every key that I could find, and reset the password on the TSM server. I have changed the password to prompt instead of generate, and then set it to generate again, and I have tried dsmcutil. Nothing has worked. The client GUI connects and works fine. I can't find anything in the KB on Tivoli's site, so I thought I would try the list. Does anyone know how I can fix this? That password must be stored somewhere else that I haven't hit on yet.
