It worked well but I am really not aware of kind of problems I may face in future. Do you know does it causes any problems related to security or any other stuff? Keith,

MigrateUser (As I noted above) only updates the SID/Login Name of the account to the target account. The other data, has to be done seperately for "Each" site collection the user is in. You can go to the "All Users" page for the site collection and manually update it on the users information page, or custom code your own solution using the SharePoint object model. For V2, I had a Account Synch feature in SPUserUtil for this, but do not have one freely available for V3. I'm working on an account synch feature in DeliverPoint, but have no details on when that may be available.

The domain login name was updated, but not the username and e-mail. Strange is that I even updated it directly in the database (UserInfo table), but there still remain the original values! We are using MOSS. The question is, HOW can I update the user information otherwise? Thanks! Ravie. Hello,

MigrateUser does not update the users email field. You will additionally need to update it. I believe that is because the users email field is not updated, thus why you can’t log in with UPN.

Ever seen anything like that? I've been pulling my hair out trying to find a workaround. -Vlad Hi Keith – I’ve found that after running stsadm -o migrateuser in order to update user login info, users are no longer able to log in using their UPN credentials. the only login that works is DOMAIN\SamAccountName.
