The users are set up correctly in my Windows 2000
configuration, but each time I log on my personal settings
are not retained. I look under Documents and Settings and
there is a new profile created each time I log in. The
system just adds a number to the end of it (i.e.
Kerry.001, Kerry.002) This is so frustrating since each
time I log on I have to update Windows and go through the
Internet connection wizard again. If anyone can help...it
would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

If the profile is corrupt, you can rename it and the new .001, etc.
profile(while logged on as local admin), then when the user logs on again a
new profile will be created from the image in \default user. You can then
copy over the items you need from the renamed profile. Copy the folder
contents not the folders themselves. When your sure you have all you need,
you can delete the renamed profile(s). Use the import function of your
e-mail software.

If it continues to happen then either the \default user profile may be
corrupt and or the drive permissions may have changed.
