I have a user that had a name change and I have gotten everything changed except the actual network account. For examle, she had been mjones on my domain. Now she is msmith. I thought it should be as easy and going into her mjones properties and just changing her name. NOT A GOOD IDEA. So I created a msmith user account. Now when doing things, there are times that her old and new account seem to have "blended". I dont know how to explain it. For example. She logs in as msmith But when going to My computer, her home drive says mjones
I don't want to make matters worse so what would have been my proper way to keep her profile and settings and get her name changed. Should I have used the copy function in active directory and created it that way?
Are you sure you changed it in every place. You also need to update the GAL otherwise her old name will be in there and not the new one.

Well I thought I did. Sorry, but where do I update GAL? Is this related to an Exchange server? We don't have one.
I am very GREEN so please excuse dumb questions
