Confirm new password? Please help.

Hi,
All of sudden, all my SQL 2K servers start to ask "Confirm
new password" when I assign a database access permission
to a local user. Even though I type in the correct
password, it still say "The confirmation password is not
correct". Right now I simply cannot assign any database
access to the local users. But the domain trusted users
don't have this problem. Does anyone know what the problem
is?
Thank you in advance for your help.
David...I'm trying to remember back - I had this occur ages ago. Have you either
service packed the server or switched client workstation? I "think" it was
fixed by service packing my client machine (to get it inline with the server
).

brought the builder version to 8.00.818. I just found the
article that addresses this problem.

Thanks for your information.

I downloaded and applied the hotfix. The problem is gone.
But when I check the SQL server product version that is
still showing 8.00.818(SP3). Is that right? I thought it
should show the version # 8.00.819(SP3). Is there
something that I didn't do right?
Thank you for your help.
David.

affect sqlservr.exe so therefore you still see 818. This is expected
behaviour

Sorry. That is correct. SQL Server .exe is still 818.
01-Jun-2003 01:02 2000.80.818.0 7,544,916 bytes Sqlservr.exe
This is the only component stamped 819.
