Add pc to domain

[Erik Cominolli]

My problem is this:

Let's say I want to add Sally to a domain. She's already
got her profile in the PC. When I add her to the domain,
it creates a new profile for her. Her mail, desktop etc.
is gone. How do I just have everything carry over??

Someone told me the only thing I can do is to:

"The easiest thing is to copy all her documents from the
old profile to the new one. Trying to get the system to
use the old one will probably lead to profile corruption.
If she can still log into the local account, then export
her cookies, IE favorites, and mail settings so the can be
imported into the new profile."

This isn't going to be fun for 120 machines. There is no
easier way?? Why does it create a new user??

you can have the user join the domaind and create a
profile, and then go into the properties of my computer,
Advanced --> Settings for user profiles. There you should
be able to copy the one profile into the other. try that
out.

Good luck.
