Error message when trying to copy a user account

[Jose]

When trying to copy a user account within a OU other than
the users OU, I received the error message:
"Objet cannot be copied because: an invalid Active
Directory pathname was passed"
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jose

This issue may occur when the following conditions are true:

- Your computer has Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 installed.
- The object's LDAP distinguished name contains a forward slash ( / )
character.

A hotfix is being developed but has not been released yet.

If this is not the issue, a similar description can be found in this
