I tried to create a new account earlier and while it created the account, it failed while trying to create the user directory. It gave me the message to have the user visit
to finish the setup.

What's the common reason for this?

Thanks for the help.
 
Are u using a 3rd party/homegrown tool to create the user accounts (I have seen similar issues)? Sounds like the tool is not working correctly, since this error is not commonly found in Windows
 
No, just going in through server management / users. Could it be a license issue. We may be at or above our max.
 
Is this SBS2003?

Yes, Microsoft Windows Server 2003 for Small Business, SP2
 
You may want to post in the SBS 2003 forum...sorry, I don't have the shortcut to it.
