<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Calibri" size="3">I haven’t done this but imagine that changing a username in active directory (due to marriage, divorce, or whatever reason), will cause havoc for the associated user in UCM and Unity Connection during the next synch period? I’m guessing it changes the previous user account to inactive status and imports the updated AD account as a new user in both systems, thereby eliminating device associations, Unity Connection mailbox, etc. I'm hoping I'm wrong and the AD username can be changed without impact to either UC application.</font></div>

<div style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"><font face="Calibri" size="3">I've checked the SRND for both and don't find any comments in this regard. I've also search the archives, netpro and lmgtfy (although I'm hoping someone has more effective search critieria to send me one of those infamous links, LOL). Unfortunately I don't have access to the AD server to make a temp account and test.</font></div>
