TITLE   :Migrate User Wizard Does Not Configure Internet Connectivity
PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT
PROD/VER:winnt:4.0,4.5
OPER/SYS:
KEYWORDS:kbenv kbnetwork kbtool kbui

======================================================================
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft BackOffice Small Business Server versions 4.0, 4.5 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When you view a user account file, the file may not contain information about
whether the user can connect to the Internet.

CAUSE
=====

This issue can occur if you use the Migrate User Wizard to assign or export
proxy permissions. The Migrate User Wizard does not support this functionality.

RESOLUTION
==========

To resolve this issue, do not use the use the Migrate User Wizard for this
purpose, use the User Resource Wizard to grant "Access the Internet"
permissions.

MORE INFORMATION
================

In BackOffice Small Business Server (SBS) an administrator can import users from
another Microsoft Windows NT-based computer by using the Migrate User Wizard.
This wizard has two execution modes:

 - Export Mode

 - Import Mode

When you insert SBS CD-ROM number 1, you can choose to export Windows NT user
accounts and Exchange mailboxes. This creates a text file (the user account
file) that is used in import mode. Or, an administrator can create the user
account file manually and then use this file during import mode. On the To Do
List in the SBS console, the wizard is started in import mode (btuser.exe /i).
This takes the user account file and creates the Windows NT user accounts and
Exchange mailboxes on the SBS-based computer.

The following data is not exported from an existing Windows NT or Exchange
installation to an SBS installation:

 - User passwords. When the user account is created, the password is initially
   set to "abcd12345" (without the quotes). Users should be instructed to
   manually change their passwords the next time they log on.

 - Internet Access Permissions. By default, all users created through the wizard
   can not use the Internet. This behavior is the same as the Add User Wizard.

 - Exchange Distribution Lists. The E-Mail Distribution List Wizard should be
   used to create the Exchange Distribution Lists.
