Yeah, when I did the change, I changed all the relevant entries of the
user's last name, but it just wouldn't work.
But, you're saying it should have worked?

You have to change a few things:
1) The username
2) The Display Name
3) The account name
4) The mailbox name
5) The email addresses
6) Any folders eg Home Directories based off the user name
Enjoy!

Should I be able to change a username in Win2K AD Users & Computers??
I was under the impression (from the Win2K Server MSCE guide) that I should
be able to just change a user's username in Active Directory Users &
Computers if their name changed... But, I did this in the past and it cause
all sorts of problems!!!
For example, I had a user who got married and changed her name. So, I just
changed her last name and username to match... She wasn't able to logon
with the new username at all! I don't remember the exact order of what I
had to do to get it to work properly, but I know I had to remove her user
account completely and add it back in a few times plus a few reboots of the
server before I got it working.
The problem is, now I have to do this again, and I don't want it to be such
a trouble this time!!
Any pointers? Is this supposed to work, or does this just not work at all
in your experiences?
