yeah it worked from >promt i was able to Dir and the whole time I was
always in the apropriate folder assigned to the test user i created. but
like I said on the other post I do not have access to security tab (the
rightclicking tab in win2000) so to go on from here and allow modify i have
no idea what to do. all of the available support seems to be directed to
win2000 and never or always indirectly xp.
