Re: Extra User Folders/Profiles



Thanks for the response, David. I guess I was a little unclear. This
is a domain controller server machine (Windows 2000 Server SP4). Only
two users log on to it and both login to the domain. The two users
are Administrator and Backup. I would like to get rid of the
seemingly unused "administrator" folders and get Administrator to use
the "Administrator" folder instead of the "Administrator.SRVR1"
folder. Can this be done? Tnx!
