How can I change the short name for an administrator account?
Before you try this, do your homework. That shortname is used by the
Unix underpinnings; it's glued to your file ownerships etc.
Search Apple's kbase for details.
Then, I think there's a script called ChangeShortName, available via
versiontracker, that will help automate the process.
BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST.
