Thanks Richard

yes I guessed I had two profiles.

We actually dont have support staff - we are a ssmall company and I run the
network. Up until 3 months ago, it was alsways Novell, and I never had any
problems with that. However for commercial reasons we switched to SBS2003 a
couple of months ago and i am still getting my head around it.

Any help or advice in resolving my issue much appreciated

Alex
