Hi!

Can the following be accomplished:

1a. A Windows XP work station, on Windows NT 4.0 Server domain (SP
6.0a), can a username simply be changed to a new name with all personal
settings being retained for the new user? How else can this be
accomplished?

1b. Can all of a users personal settings be backed up and restored to a
new computer?

Thank you for any insight.

KJ
