Scripted Logins
This is a discussion about Scripted Logins in the Windows Networking category; Hi guys. I have various connections to the net, but one in particular requires a scripted login for authentication. When i type in the username and password the first time and connect, it will authenticate properly.
Hi guys.
I have various connections to the net, but one in particular requires a scripted login for authentication.
When i type in the username and password the first time and connect, it will authenticate properly. But on subsequent retries, authentication fails.
After getting the ISP in question to check their logs, it appears that my machine sends 16*'s instead of the password. Any ideas as to why the machine is sending the 'password mask' instead of the password beneath?
By the way, my other 'non-scripted' logins work just fine...
Any ideas.
Thanks
