Notices

The requesting workstation does not have to be logged in to the NetWare server to call NWVerifyObjectPassword.

If the server supports encrypted passwords, the password is encrypted. If the server does not support encryption, password verification is attempted without encryption.

objName and objType must uniquely identify the bindery object and cannot contain wildcards.

A bindery object without a PASSWORD is different from a bindery object with a PASSWORD having no value. A workstation is not allowed to log in to a NetWare server as a bindery object that does not have a PASSWORD. However, a workstation can log in without a password if the bindery object has been given a PASSWORD containing no value.
