We run Novell on this system and I created a sub account
using the Novell username for the sub account. Novell
logs on before the Windows log on screen so on the first
day the crew logged on to the sub account by changing
username from ADMINISTRATOR to the username of our Novell
account we can no longer access the ADMINISTRATOR
account. When we log off it automatically reboots and
when we log on to Novell it automatically logs on to the
sub account without offering any way to access the
ADMINISTRATOR account as it no longer even shows up. Is
there anything we can do short of formatting and
reloading this machine. This system is mission critical
and we are at a loss at the moment and are using work
arounds, but have no permission for anything since we
cannot access the ADMIN acct. HELP!!! Any advice would be
greatly appreciated.

Would booting into safe mode without networking
prevent the Novell login from happening, allowing
you to log in and rename the account back ?
