Server-based password checking with mixed R4/R5 clients

If a single user uses both R4 and R5 clients with Domino servers that have "Check Passwords on Notes IDs" enabled, there may be problems when that user changes passwords. In particular, a password set on an ID file using R4 will not match the same password set on an ID file using R5, and the user is likely to get error messages of the form "Your password does not match the one stored in your entry in the server's Address Book." The workaround is to copy the user's ID file from the client where authentication is successful to the clients where it fails.
