SUMMARY
=======

This article describes how to temporarily disable password caching when you are
using the Microsoft Service for NetWare Directory Services (MSNDS). Disabling
password caching ensures that your password remains secure when other users use
your computer.

MORE INFORMATION
================

To temporarily disable password caching when you are using MSNDS, use one of the
following methods:

- To disable password caching when the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks is
  your primary network client, or when the Microsoft Client for NetWare
  Networks is not your primary network client but the pass- word for your
  primary network client is null, press and hold down the CTRL key when the
  Windows 95 logo is displayed. When the first Enter Network Password or
  Welcome To Windows dialog box is displayed, release the CTRL key.

- To disable password caching when the Microsoft Client for NetWare Networks is
  not your primary network client and the password for your primary network
  client is not null, press and hold down the CTRL key while you click OK in
  the first Enter Network Password or Welcome To Windows dialog box. When the
  next Enter Network Password or Welcome to Windows dialog box is displayed,
  release the CTRL key.
