Agreed. Especially since that splits that userbase between 2 different servers, one of which wasn't designed to support users that way. That type of setup fails my "bus" test. Ie, if I get hit by a bus today, can a new admin come in tomorrow and understand the setup with minimal research. This is especially inportant if theres a chance for a new admin to think they understand while actually missing an important part -- in this case the one lone user on the other server. > Before you know > it, you could have 20 or thirty of these lines.

Ooh, I like that. Mind if I use it? I'd like to pass the phrase onto my replacement at my current job. Lucky him, he's inheriting 10 years or so of duct tape.
