WXP SP2: Transferring settings from one user to another

Hi all,

I need a little help from you: I would like to transfer *all* settings
(also desktop, etc) and files related to "Documents and Settings" from
one user to a different user on the same system. Sounds like a common
task, but I could not find any help on this.

TIA
Uwe

Hi,
I am looking for the same thing. To be more specific, we are migrating
users from from one AD to another AD domain. The users will be on the same
PC but will have a different logon account. We are looking for a tool to
migrate their local profile/settings to their new account.

I looked at ADMT and USMT but both assume the users have the same username
before and after the migration. So they won't work in our case. Any
suggestion would be appreciated.

Thanks,
slamck

I was wondering if any of you have solved this problem... I have written a
very nice little script that does it all... Anyone interested can contact me
