When you try to connect to a Windows 95 server that is using user-level access control from a Windows for Workgroups client you receive the following error message: This error message occurs even if you enter a correct domain, user name, and password when you try to log on.

This behavior can occur when the following two conditions are met:

•	The Windows 95 server uses user-level access control.
•	The domain (also known as the pass-through domain) the server uses to validate clients is different from the client's domain.

To work around this behavior, use one of the following methods:

•	Use share-level access control on the server instead of user-level access control.
•	Upgrade the client to a Windows 95 client.
•	Change the client's logon domain to match the server's.
