Steve,
I think this one is the answer. Although the account display name is the
same as an account name on the server, I think the actual name, used in
re-establishing connections, is different.
Now, do you happen to know a good way of getting all the settings from one
user profile to another? I am not at all convinced that the file and setting
transfer wizard is the solution since it seems to keep per user data for the
same users on the 'new' machine. What I want is a way of setting up a new
user with all the settings from an existing user, instead of having to
install all the applications all over again.
Thanks
Dave
