Re: add user error



Hi Sue,

Not sure about the quota error, but are you saying that you promoted a
mobile user to a full domain administrator? Was this intentional? (i.e.,
you wanted him to have full control of the SBS server?)

ok that did not help. I also changed a user from mobile to administrator,
and got the quota error, could a ms update have done this? since it was
working and nothing else has changed?

Hello everyone. Thought that was the last of me almost. Just was last
annoying problem, then I will leave all you in peace. When I go to add a
user using the wizard, it gives me an error saying:

The wizard could not successfully configure this user account. The
following could not be completed:

- A home folder could not be created for this user.

- Quota information could not be set.

Do you want to keep this user account?

As before SBS 2003 fully patched
