USER PROFILES

[Guest]

Hi everyone,

What is the best and quickest way to create two separate accounts or
profiles for the same user on a windows xp laptop, for both home use and use
at work.

The user apparently has one account setup, but when taking the laptop home
and then to work he keeps losing the domain connection. I believe he has to
keep changing his settings to log into the domain etc. Is there a sufficient
way to create 2 accounts or profiles one for home and work.

Many thanks
Jeff
