If you accept the default entries, it will ask you at the end to save them. Tell it yes and run add user again and you're all set and back to your normal routine. -- Micheal Patterson TSG Network Administration 405-917-0600 Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail message, including any attachments, is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
