Hi, i am trying to add users wih the wizard. I get the folowing error "the
wizard cannot successfully configure this user account." It indicates that
"A home folder could not be created" and "Quota Info could not be set." I
think this has something to do with moving the users shared folder. I did
follow the moving sbs data files document carefully and thought I had all the
permissions correct, but obviously something is wrong. If I choose to keep
the user account everthing appears normal (mailbox works,etc.) and a folder
with the user name is even created in the users shared folder. it does not
however create the user's shared documents folders inside the user folder and
I always get the error messages. Any ideas are appreciated, thanks, mathab
