Cannot get in there either. Have rebooted numerous times. There is something
amiss here - it also takes a very very long time for the Domain users snap
in to come up - like about five minutes. Don't find anything in the event
log - I cleared it now and will watch for something now.

whatever, thanks. I think I'll probably go back to Win2k server - this isn't
worth the time meanwhile, it can wait until MS gets it straight.
