- I had this problem recently as well. It happens on a network when a
- network wide user's account has a user id that is the same as a local user
- id. Check that the users id doesn't conflict with, say the localhost's
- "me" user, or other local (non-network wide) user. Use UserManager to
- check this. I neighbourhood is now in order...
