changing a user's name.
...password database
and roaming profiles. A user (running XP w/ SP2) recently got married
and has a new last name. So, I need to change her username from bkearny
to btalbot. In the past I've just changed their name in
/etc/samba/smbpasswd and moved /var/lib/samba/profiles/old_username to
new_username and changed ownership of the files (chown -R new_username
/var/lib/samba/profiles/new_username) and also done the same with their
net login script (change to new name and change ownership of it). This
has caused problems when they get a new PC or format and reinstall of XP
on their existing PC...
