I am Running 3 machines with XP Pro I am tring to access the desktop thru
the LAN.

I am tring to change the user names on all 3 computer to be the same.

When I change the name of the Computer Administrator user the file under
Documents and Settings is still the old name and I can't rename it.

WHY?

When I create a new folder with the new name and copy all the files I can it
seems to work.

WHY?

Thanks for the help
