DUN password not remembered

Not life threatening, but vastly irritating is when the Dial Up Networking dialog won’t remember your password.

Not having the Client for Microsoft Networks installed could be the reason why your ISP password is not remembered.

Microsoft’s fix is to open the Network applet in Control Panel and ensure that Client for Microsoft Networks is in the components list. If not, click Add, then Client, then Microsoft, and pick it. Click OK and in the Network dialog change the Primary Network Logon field to Windows Logon. 

Sometimes you need to investigate further, as explained in Knowledge Base article Q148925. Another option is to go into Users in Control Panel, create a new user name and log on to Windows with that.

User not logon, no prompt to logon to domain

Another network logon issues on older network client like Windows 95 and Windows 98 first version is the disappearance of network login prompt. This can be solved by opening the Network applet in Control Panel, selecting Client for Microsoft Network and un-checking the logon to domain option, apply and the redo the above step this time checking the logon to domain option.
