OK its usually fun to let people guess the pronunciation. Ill give it to you. However, it isnt as much fun without listening to someone tie their toungue in a knot first.

RE: [U2] User Name Change on Win XP affects Universe {Unclassified}
Anthony, Maybe you need to change the contents of your UV.LOGINS file? Probably you have a record with ID "Anthony Dzikiewicz" and need to copy it as "adzikiewicz", then after you are logging in correctly as "adzikiewicz", delete the "Anthony Dzikiewicz" one. You can probably just do that from TCL and see if it works, or if you can run UniAdmin you can do it from the "Network Services" / "Telnet" entry, "Users" tab HTH Mike > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Anthony Dzikiewicz > Sent: Thursday, 24 November 2005 07:37 > To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org > Subject: RE: [U2] User Name Change on Win XP affects Universe [snip] > Normally, this wouldn't be a real issue.

For example, under Documents and Settings, the user folder still had the original name. I ended up creating a new account and starting over, but I understand there is a 'user migration tool' that can be used to transfer settings.

RE: [U2] User Name Change on Win XP affects Universe
I found the answer to my own question. It turns out that in the control panel under administrative tasks, computer management, there is a Local Users and Groups tab. The users folder contains the a listing of users in the system. I was still set up as 'anthony dzikiewicz' on that list. The fullname value was 'adzikiewicz', but not the value of name. I changed the value of name to 'adzikiewicz' and now I am telneting to Universe as 'adzikiewicz'. The gotcha with this is; Although I can telnet as 'adzikiewicz' when I do WHO it still reports me as 'anthonylaptop\anthony dzikiewicz'. I had to reboot the PC in order for this to clear up. After reboot, everything is as expected. Seeing how long my name is to type, this is a substantial savings. I probably should have opted for 'tonyd' (but I really don't go by tony).

RE: [U2] User Name Change on Win XP affects Universe
Thanks for the tip. I don't think this is the case here. I don't have any network passwords stored. I am using XP Home version on the Laptop. So, I have limited resources to modifying these kinds of things. All I did was change my name in control panel. Im not sure what Windows really does under the hood. When I connect to samba as 'adzikiewicz' it works, but when I telnet to my own machine (using Universe telnet ) it still wants me to be 'anthony dzikiewicz' and not 'adzikiewicz'. Normally, this wouldn't be a real issue. I can live with logging in as 'Anthony Dzikiewicz'. However, our applications do things in the login and on.exit paragraphs and in various applications with user name retrieved via @LOGNAME. When @LOGNAME = 'anthonylaptop\Anthony Dzikiewicz' it is awkward because of the space. Keyvalues with spaces are awkward to deal with.

Anthony, This might be part of the problem: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;306541 XP saves usernames and passwords for network resources.
