Sharepoint Portal Services domain migration issue

Everyone,


I've run into a problem migrating Sharepoint Portal Services from
one domain to another. I've run the following line of code ...

PortalAccountMigrationManager.MigrateAccount(oldDomain + "\\" +
username, newDomain + "\\" + username, true);

That seemed to have run ok. I checked the Users area under "Site
Settings" and all of the users have the new domain against their
username. The problem comes when a user goes to check out a file from a
document library. They're being prompted for a username/password even
though they have security to checkout files. They're logged onto their
PC with the new domain so Sharepoint should be pulling the
authentication directly from their login but that doesn't seem to be
the case.

Has anyone run in the same issue when changing domains?

Thank you in advance for any help,

As a followup to this. I tried entering the OLD domain \ username when
the password prompt comes up and it works fine?! .... so it seems that
partway during the migration Sharepoint somehow got confused ... the
username in the Site Settings is listed as NEW domain \ username but
when you go to checkout it still wants OLD domain \ username.

Thanks again,
Scott
