to work perfectly. Admittedly if you have more than a few users to
migrate, this could be cumbersome. Paul Geinger's suggestion is much

Tom,
Can't wait to find out what you learn. In the mean time, a quick
google search turned up this:

Unfortunately I don't have this package installed on this system, so I
don't have the man page or the profiles command right now.

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
ok, just to make it clean.
what do You mean by "Local admins" ?
1) domain user (or domain group, or even "Everyone" added to local
group Administrators ?
2) local user added to local group Administrators ?
