NetUserAdd actually creates a new user, rather than creating a profile.
The profile, which is what's stored in Documents and Settings, will
be created (or copied from a server in the case of a roaming profile)
when the account is first logged on . You can specify
the location using the 'profile' member of USER_INFO_3 or 4.

Are you sure you're specifying the correct server ? Use None to
mean the local machine. Also, how are you specifying the username ?
eg a bare username, NT-style 'domain\username', Active Directory
syntax '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' etc.

NetUserEnum is a little tricky to use, can you post your code ?
