program changing password

J

I'm using Entourage 04 on an Ibook to try to access my existing
ziplink.net account. I connected to my server using the information I
provided, but when I disconnected some digits got added to my password,
and now I can't get back into my account and I can't change my
password: or rather, when i do change it in account preferences it gets
overridden with the new and incorrect password each time I click apply.
I'm locked out of my server for all access now. Any suggestions?

Quit Entourage, and open Keychain Access (/Applications/Utilities/Keychain
Access). Unlock your keychain if necessary. Begin by running Keychain
First Aid from the "Window" menu. Choose to "Repair", and click "Start".

Then, when it's done, go to your keychain window and locate the password for
your ziplink.net account. Select it, click the "Attributes" tab in the
lower pane, and check the "Show Password" box. Type your keychain
(OS/user/master password), and click "Allow Once". Change your password for
ziplink.net, and then click "Save Changes". That should correct the
problem.

If that doesn't work, open Keychain Access, and delete the password item for
your ziplink.net account. Then, launch Entourage, and re-type the password
in your account settings.
