Ok, thanks.<br />

However on the PC through which she is accessing the server we now have a user account called firstname.surname, which has inherited all the account settings for the account that was used on this PC when it was stand-alone. Do we not also have to do anything with this account on this PC?

We're just installing SBS2003. &nbsp;We've set up our first user using logon name firstname.surname. &nbsp;We've been through the process that sets up that user on thier PC, allowing them to logon to the domain. &nbsp;That's all gone fine.<br />
<br />
Now we've had a change of heart and we want to use just firstname as the logon name. &nbsp;How should we go about changing that for that one user who has already been set up?<br />

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
