There's a difference between "the" administrator account an "an administrator in the group" in that the "the" administrator has extra privileges. If you search for "the administrator vs an administrator" you might find the details. The default built-in administrator is intended to be used only for critical startup functions, being so privileged it's disabled by default. I believe that's part of the answer. --------------- Phil Wilson
