The only limitation AFAIK is disk space to hold the profile files. However I think that if you had more than four or five the log-on process would start to get silly...... |

Hi Nori,
See below the earlier post by Mike Brannigan (Microsoft) ================================================== = You can create thousands of local user accounts. This would be an unmanageable situation and you would be advised to look into a more robust solution based around a Network Operating systems such as Windows Server 2003. The main limiting factor on local accounts will be the storage of all those profiles and "My Documents" How many were you thinking of creating ? -- Regards, Mike Brannigan [Microsoft] ================================================== = -- Ramesh - Microsoft MVP http://www.mvps.org/sramesh2k Microsoft Most Valuable Professional Program http://mvp.support.microsoft.com ~ Please reply to newsgroup ~ "Nori" wrote in message ...
