Any help on the following would be greatly appreciated.

We're migrating from a legacy NT4 domain to a new W2K domain and as part of the migration we want the users to login to their NT4 workstations in the new domain, but get their profile from the old domain.

After finding that the profiles are listed in HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList I wrote a script to create a new key in Profilelist which is the users SID in the new domain. I've reset the SID value under the SID number subkey and everything looks good. When I then login as the new user I still find that they get a new profile directory (as per NT standards userid.000).

I've checked that the script is writing the correct values, I've reset permissions on the new key. All to no avail.

If anyone has any ideas on how NT does profile detection outside of the ProfileList subkey I'd love to know.

I'll post my code in a following post.

cheers
