Novell Client 2 SP3 and the inability to log in the Win7

Question

Novell Client 2 SP 3 for Windows 7 64 bit and the inability to log into the desktop for a "NEW" user
My issue is that If the username exist already in Windows 7, I can log into Novell and the Window 7 desktop will load
HOWEVER if the username doesn't exist and I attempt to log in, I'm able to log into Novell Client
BUT I get prompted with another window titled Log on to this Computer with a check box Change your Windows password to match your Novell Password after success login.
1) I insert the password and
2) check the box
The Result is a line that says The Local computer username or password is not valid
Any suggestions would be most appreciated

Sorry, but that is even less clear. I'll make some assumptions.
* You have a Win7 PC.
* The user already has an account on the PC, but they have never
logged into it.
* When they login for the first time, they get an error that states
the username or password is not avalid.
Sounds like the user is using the wrong username or password.
In your first post you state:
"BUT I get prompted with another window titled log on to this Computer
with a check box Change your Windows password to match your Novell
Password after success login?"
At that point you must enter the password assigned to the account on
the PC. Depending upon how you created the account, it may not be the
same as thier eDirectory password.
If that doesn't help, try explaining again...or maybe someone else
will jump in that understands what you are trying to do.
