I have changed in one office passwords on 6 computers. regular way - control panel users and change password.

I have loged out and tried out the new password and it worked no problem.

Next day client calls me and tells me that her employees login through their old password no problem.

How is this possible ??

Anybody any ideas ?

Are these computers part of a domain?

Do the users have indiviual users on the computers, or just one account. Are you sure it wasnt the administrator password you changed?
