COMMAND

    Service Pack 6

SYSTEMS AFFECTED

    WinNT with SP6

PROBLEM

    This was  spotted by  one Bill  Brice over  on the CryptoAPI list.
    When  using  a  private  key  with  the security level set to high
    under  SP5  (e.g.  during  client certificate authentication), you
    are prompted for the password and the relevant dialogue box has  a
    "Remember password" check-box.  If  you select that box, you  will
    not be prompted  for the password  again for the  duration of that
    login session.  Except for a brief appearance during import, under
    SP6 the "Remember password" check-box is no longer there.

SOLUTION

    Not sure yet  if this is  an SP6 bug  (suspected) or a  deliberate
    change in functionality?
