I installed a new version of Snitz forums on an NT 4.0 box on our Intranet. It seemed to work fine until we configured for NT authentication.
Now, any new user who tries to Register sees this error message:
All Forums
Registration Rules and Policies Agreement
Registration Form for LearnWright Discussion Forum
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80004005'
Field 'FORUM_MEMBERS.M_PASSWORD' cannot be a zero-length string.
/discuss/register.asp, line 295
If the user does not register but simply tries to post a message
In addition, I tried setting NT AutoLogon to True and now simply accessing the main forum page shows this:
error '800401e4'
Invalid syntax
/discuss/inc_functions.asp, line 1273
Please help. Obviously other people are getting NT authentication to work. It's hard to see how what I have done ought to result in these kinds of errors.
Thanks,
Michael Levy

I read in some other posts that you must have ADSI installed on Windows NT to use NT Authorization.
Is that true?
If so, I think it would save your users some pain to make that requirement somewhat more obvious--for example, on the pop-up help. If it's in an FAQ, I did not see it. |

Yeah, it seems it is needed.
Our NT Authentication Moderator isn't around much to actually help the Admins/DEV Team to determine what is needed to get this option of the forum working properly. And the rest of us don't have much experience in the area.
We could probably place the info in the FAQ forums here.

Same thing here too!
Would be nice to be able to get the NT Auth to work - we are a school and this way we can keep a track of who people are! (just in case of course! lol)

Found this problem, and fixed it (when using the access database).
In the FORUM_MEMBERS table, all the text fields are set to not allow zero-length values. Change this, and registering users with NT Auth works a treat.

Hi there:
Where do I find the Forum_Members? And where do I make the change?
Thanks so much
Dave

FORUM_MEMBERS is a table in the database. You need to edit it and allow zero length values for the colums
