Whenever you join a new domain (Win2K or WinNT) with a workstation (Win2K or WinNT) a new profile is created - ther eis no way around this. If you still can login to the old domain, do so and use &quot;Start\Settings\Control Panel\System\User Profiles&quot; to copy the profile to your new domain profile and set the permissions properly. If you can't, manually copy what you need from &quot;c:\documents and settings\<old profile> to your new one. Heath

Heath,

Thanks a lot for your answer, my problem was due to access rights on the local computer.
For the old profile works in my new configuration i had to add the domain user on the local administrator group.
