Hello Ada,
Thank you for your reply and suggestion.
I tried to copy C:\documents and settings\USER1.DomianA\ to C:\documents
and settings\USER1\. Then login user1 again, I found there will be some
problem on permission even I add user1 domain account on user1 folder with
full control. There still have permission problem. I am wondering if
ntusers.ini and ntuser.dat cannot be copied to the new profile etc.
ADMT and other tools cannot be used because user accounts are already
created in the new domain. Anymore suggestion or advise? Thanks a lot!!
B.regards,
Wilson
