I've installed DNN 4.5.3, fresh install.  VWD Express 2005, SQL Server 2000, XP Pro.  All works well except when I login using host / dnnhost.  I am prompted to change the password.  I enter "dnnhost" as the current password then enter my new password  (coldbeer) twice.

It will not accept the change.

I get the message:  "Login Failed, remember that Passwords are case sensitive." 

What am I doing wrong.  I've looked in the forums and I see others have had this problem too.

I've even tried a new fresh install on a different michine at home..... still the same problem.

(I've also had this problem with versions 4.5.1, 4.5.2.)

I've found a "work around"..... use Enterprise Mangler to set UpdatePassword=0 in the [Users] table.

Hope this will help others.

Are you able to change passwords with other accounts?

It's a new install.  I'm able to register and change passwords for new users.

Only the admin & host seem to have the problem.
