I have been away from intensive use of jb for quite a while now, but remember that my clients all used W2K and simply hit the enter key for password to log in. I later, set up my application in my office using xp-pro, but until I re-loaded my system this last time, I don't ever remember having to enter a password to log in to my POS account. Oh well, more than one way to skin a cat, so I think I will just put a login script in my telnet application (NetTerm). Seems strange though, that one can use an xp password as short as one space, but if you delete the password, you can't log on with a null pw. Looks like ms places a default pw when one chooses to delete it. I have done a bit of research and all of the suggested solutions don't seem to work when one is attempting to telnet. Dave

I asked about this years ago and no workaround was ever offered. Regards, Alan From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of David Grenfell Sent: Saturday, November 20, 2010 3:33 PM To: [email protected] Subject: JB 3.X ON XP-PRO Hi All: I have an interesting situation with my system. I have set up and account called "GCS" and the path to it is simply C:\usr\GCS Everything seems to be working ok in Jbase. Here is a scenerio. I log on to my system as administrator with no password. I open my Telnet window and attempt to log on to jbase. I get the normal Account Name: prompt, to which I reply "GCS". It gets strange when I am asked for a password . It apparently wants the password that I would assign to the account when I created it under windows. I can log on if I use this password, but I remember previous installations when I did not need a password here. So, I removed the password under windows, restarted my jbase server, but cannot log on at all either with or without a password. So, straighten me out please.
