So I got the new updates and can now use the hp server software on my vista 64-bit machine. I do have an issue where it tells me my account is not found on the server and that I should create an account on the server and all that fun stuff. Well it actually is the same account that I use on the other machines. The software seems to base the username on the actual directory name instead of the account name. I'll try to explain.

So let's say my name is John Doe and that's the account name I use on my machines. I get a shiny new computer with vista 64-bit and the company sets it up with the account name of doe and therefore a user directory of c:\users\doe. Trying to be clever and think ahead I change the account name to John Doe to match the other computers in my house. However, windows does not change the user directory, it remains at c:\users\doe. So even though I'm logging in as John Doe, I get a warning from the hp server software after logging in that the user account "doe" is not found on the mediasmart server. Seems like a programmer assumed that the directory name under c:\users always matches the actual account name and that does not appear to be the case.
