When a user logs on to OfficeTalk, he must supply a login name and password. When the user is added, the supervisor specifies the user's login name and OfficeTalk defaults the user's password to be exactly the same as the login name. The user may change this password from the login dialog box at any time. If the user forgets his password he will not be able to log on to OfficeTalk. His only remedy is to ask a supervisor to reset his password back to his login name.
This is done by displaying the user's property sheet and pressing the Reset Password button. The next time the user logs into OfficeTalk, his password will be the same as his login name.
