In WinNT4 a failed attempt to dial into and ISP results in the password being removed from the dialog box, even with the save password box checked. We do not give out the password and need to keep the password. Is anyone aware of a fix for this !

The password is saved when the box is checked and a successful connect is made. If the user cannot connect, they should press cancel and then double-click the original icon.

Good luck.

Above is correct you didnt specify if this connection was working before but as long as you havent made a connection the pwd will not be saved.

In addition to the above answers, If you set the password in the ISP setting dialogs and uncheck the prompt for Name and Password etc in the Dial up Networking properties then provided that the users allow IE to dial and connect automatically they should not see a password request
