6.7. Why don't I get a NetWare login prompt when Win95 starts?

   This is related to a password caching problem I read about on
   Win95NetBugs. If the .PWL file is around 900 bytes, it will
   by-pass the NetWare login prompt and start Win95 straight away. Login
   scripts won't execute, and the only way to get them to execute is to
   Shut Down/Close all programs and log on as different user, and re-log
   in.
   
   To correct this, delete all .PWL files in your Win95 directory and
   re-start the computer. While you're at it, disable password caching
   via system policies.
