Good afternoon all.

We are still on an NT 4.0 NOS which authenticates users
loging in on brand new WinXP workstations.

We have one subnet that won't recognize or pull down NT
profiles from other subnets. I rebooted the BDC on that
particular subnet (which is an NT 4.0 server that hadn't
been rebooted in quite some time) and it did not alleviate
the issue. I had to move the user's profile to the subnet
she was on and then her WinXP workstation could see it.
Unfortunately this user travels throughout different
subnets where she logs on. So far I haven't seen this
issue documented either on MS or doing a search on google.
Any help is much appreciated.

Thank you!
Stacey
