We are doing a username conversion on our network.
No biggie, right?
Wrong!

On laptops only, which use macola software to run crystal reports,
we are receiving a btrieve error, along the lines of file not found,
when we try to run our reports. The report data is on a SAN.
We didn't move any of the data, just simply changed the domain login
name.

For some reason, we don't get the error on any of our desktop
workstations, only the laptops.

Any ideas?

Well I fixed my own problem.
I figured someone out there would find the issue interesting even if
you're not dealing with the same pieces of software that I am.

If you change the windows login username on the DC via active directory
and then login the first time from a docked laptop, the settings won;t
all take.

The fix was to change the username back, undock the laptop, make the
username change from the DC again and THEN login from the undocked
laptop.
Weird huh?
