    I once had an admin who, during a domain name change, thought to change
    NTFS permissions at the drive root level, ( ALL drives, to remove the
    UNKNOWN accounts) and propogate permissions all the way down. Almost
    drove 3 hours just to flog him to death. ( they were freshly built
    servers that had just gone live. In infinite management wisdom, single
    servers only, no spare machines.)

    David, you are *MORE* correct than most people will *EVER* know!

    Thanks,
