The problem comes with users. The users were user.HOME in

the one
user I have on that computer, it is creating a new profile for
user.HDA. What controls the profile directory on the computer
(btw, the
OS is XP)? What do I need to do for it to use the profile of
user.HOME?
Disconnect the workstations from the network. Log in with the
old domain user account. Run the file and programs transfer
wizard (Start-All-Programs- Accessories...IIRC) and save the
profile transfer locally. Log in with new domain user and import
the saved profile.
I disconnected the ethernet. I am logging in as the user for domain
HOME. I get the error:
Hmmm...you need to do a reboot without network connectivity on the
Windows box. The passwords are cached locally.
"The system cannot log you on now because the domain HOME is not
available."
Before all this, if I did not have network connectivity, I could
still log in locally. Hmmm, let's try disconnecting the server
instead... No dice as the server is also the DHCP server.
Next let's stop smb and nmb on the server, but leave it
connected.... Just took longer, but still no login.
So now why is it requiring the domain to be present to log in. No
local log in?
So I restarted the services and got logged in.
If I log in locally as administrator, is there anyway to copy
another user's files and settings?
