Hey Joe,
Thanks for your help....The profile is translated correctly when run from
original migration DC.
For the machines I already migrated, I followed your instructions for
copying the protar.mdb file to DC in remote office and running the security
translation wizard. This worked for some of the machines. There were a few
machines that I had previously logged into with remote users name & pass
&new domain for testing. On these machines the profile security would still
not translate. I would get a message like "profile for JUser already
exists.... not overwriting" on these PC's. Is there a fix for this or do I
have to recreate profiles on these users?
Thanks again..
-Paul
