Okay, sorry, it *is* starting to get a bit muddy. To clear it up: If a domain user is added to the Administrators group on the client (ie local) win xp mahine, then their is no problem.
If the user is *not* part of the local Administrators group then the profile doesn't load properly. So: Domain: CIVILIZATION samba PDC: BABYLON Win XP client: TROY Domain user: Zach Local user: local_user If CILIVLIZATION\Zach is added to TROY\Administrators, then no problem. If CILIVLIZATION\Zach is removed from TROY\Administrators, then profile doesn't load properly, even if CILIVLIZATION\Zach is a member of TROY\Power Users or TROY\Users, etc. (This applies to other domain users as well, not just Zach). Further, when TROY\local_user, logs on to TROY, then no problem, regardless of group membership. Hope this doesn't muddy things up further. I know there are others out there exibiting this same problem. Surely there's someone who's seen it & solved it.
