Hi,

Did you try to remove all drive mappings and other connections which require
NT authettication? We had some accounts who where getting locked out all the
time which was caused by a mapping.

Don't forget the SID is gone when you give the user a new userid. This could
produce some problems. Especialy when the user uses connections to domains
you don't have admin rights on.

Enjoy.

Brgds,
Gertjan
