Using Win 2000 Server

After having renamed the Built-in Administrator account, I am still able to
log in with the Username "Administrator" as well as the new name I gave the
account. The default Admin account shows up with the new name and there is
no account with the name Administrator ,yet I can log onto the domain using
the username Administrator.

Any enlightenment GREATLY appreciated!

TIA

Did you rename the domain administrator account or the local machine
account? Are you logging on to the domain or the local machine?

Did the User Logon Name(pre-Windows 2000) get changed? Check the account
tab for the user properties sheet.
