Remote logon issues: "Username or Password is Incorrect"
We have a remote user who when trying to logon to her workstation, experiences the "Username or Password is Incorrect" error anywhere from 6-30 times before eventually being able to log back in.
She logs into the workstation using her domain credentials. The registry is set to allow 25 logins using cached credentials.
After logging in to the workstation, she connects through a VPN tunnel to our network to do her work.
I thought that it may be an issue with cached credentials and wanted to go through and delete the entries from \\HKLM\Security\Cache
HOWEVER - the "Cache" key does not exist on the workstation under "Security" at all.

Hi,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet Forum.
To narrow down this issue, please try the following steps to check what the result is:
1.
Test this issue in Safe Mode with networking.
2.
Please test another remote user to connect to the specific workstation.
As an alternative, you could try to change your account password, and then try to see how it works.
Hope it helps.
