There are a vast number of reasons why Win95 forgets passwords. If you
have Windows logon client sorted out correctly, check if you have an old
version of DUN. If so, you may need to reinstall the scripting tool.
Otherwise the Windows annoyances site will give you a number of other
reasons why passwords may be forgotten. The following URL is a bit old -
a google search on "Windows Annoyances" will doubtless find it if it is
wrong:

There also several articles in the MS Knowledge Base dealing with this
problem.
