Hello Michal,
On Wed, 18 Oct 2000 at 14:34:29 GMT +0200 (which was 5:34 AM
where I live) witnesses say Michal Kozusznik typed:

All of the above.
TB stores most settings in the Registry for exactly that purpose. If
multiple Windows User Profiles are created, then TB will have a
registry entry in each of those User profiles. By tweaking the
settings in there, you can have completely separate accounts. This
method has the advantage that each user can be an administrator, and
is not susceptible to some of the problems when using groups.
Note: Only Administrators can add and remove accounts and do some
other things. The administrator can also limit the permissions
for any user or group of users.
However, if you want a single Windows profile, and you don't mind
having only one person with administrator rights, then you might want
to explore TB's group options. Go into Options -> Network & Administration
There, under Privileges, you can make some accounts User level
accounts. Under Groups, you can create collections of User level
accounts. Now when you log into TB, TB will ask you for your Name and
Password. The Name is just the Account name or the Group name. If
the human types in the name of a group, only the accounts associated
with that group will be visible. If the human types in a user level
account name, then only that account will be visible. If the human
types in the name of an Administrator account, then all accounts will
be visible.
For more details on how all this works and some of the pitfalls of the
User/Group method, I refer you to my message:

If you can't find that article (and the short thread that followed),
let me know and I can forward it to you off list.
