Although it's possible this is the problem, I doubt it... he has encrypted
passwords turned on (encrypt passwords = Yes), and I believe that problem
was resolved with Win95 OSR2. There should be few machines (except for some
rather old ones) that are running win95a. If it is that old and unpatched,
there is a M$ patch that should correct that issue.
