Hello All,

I have a problem that I hope someone can give me a idea on how to fix. Our Firewall software sits on a Win2k3 server as stated above. Our backups of the server go to the system.

Well our backups started becoming huge, and had to be cleaned on a regular basis. One time however I did not get it cleaned in time and when I rebooted the system it came up and said that there was not enough space so it created a temporary Administrator account and I have been in that account ever since.

I think it has affected our server to a point that I need to know if I can get the original admin account back? Is it possible? Has anyone ran into this problem?

I can see the original account under Documents and Settings and there you see the original Administrator account and under it is the Administrator.Lightspeed account that it logs in now as. I would like to get the original one back and I believe it will solve most of my small quirky problems I am having with my internet.

Any help would be appreciated and thank you for anything you can suggest to help.

Jim
