That's where I missed what you did.  I had previously thought that to
enable the account one had to just simply create it.  I see what you did
now and sure enough when I checkmark that little, itty, bitty, quirky
check box :) the directory shows up.  When I uncheck it the folder goes
away.  

Is this like an undocumented feature or something?  I mean I have seen
nothing on this anywhere in the documentation.  Does anyone know where
this is documented? 

It's just downright weird.  I mean there is no way a typical user would
ever figure this out.  Short of being on this list and asking a lot of
questions I suppose :).  What an unintuitive and quirky way to set this
up.  

Thanks. 

Carlos
