I have face the strange problem ever came across. I advised one customer how
to convert a USB Iomega hdd to ntfs through command prompt and he followed
it. After restarting it he says he couldn't log into the machine through the
normal password. Actually convert command couldn't do such a thing into the
machines admin account so far to my knowledge. So I advised him to get a
support from a third party company to reset the admin password. He called me
after that he got the password and it is not a password he even used and the
strange thing is it is the password of my local machine!!! we normally
provide remote logging support to customers but this is the first time I got
to know by me, admin account password gone into his machine...pretty strange
to me.
BTW my main questions is after a password change will the
mapped network drives get disconnected? if that so in order to connect do we
have to know the otter computers admin username and the password? Actually
this is a small workgroup and they have a server also.
thanks for any,
Susantha
