Re: Renaming User Account

If you go to www.systemtools.com, look in the Free Utilities section, and use the RenameUser utility. It is a simple command line utility to rename a user account, which can be done either locally or remotely. If you use Hyena, you can generate a list of the existing accounts, then import them into Excel, create your new name, and then just write a batch file to run the RenameUser utility with the new name.

I assume that these names are on NT 4.0. Do NOT use this utility on Windows 2000, as the internal directory name would not be renamed, and this can cause problems.
