Juergen is probably right but yur question raised some questions in my mind that you might care to answer: 1. Is this a fileserver environment? 2. Does each user have what I call a home directory either locally or on the fileserver? If either of these or both can be answered yes then you could perhaps invoke both from the fileserver. -- G.
