Basic Question about OUs and user accounts

| This more of a funamental concept question than a specific test question.
I understand that once you create a user account you can move it around to different OUs.
Can the same user account be a member of two different non-nested OUs? (can you copy it to more than one OU?)
I think that the answer would be no, but I want to be sure...
Thanks,

| You can copy a user account so that has the same properties, but you can't use the same login name. When you copy an account it asks you to input certain information like first name, last name, etc and the username. If you try to create a user account in a different OU with the same login name you will get an error saying "The user name you have chose is already in use in this enterprise. Choose another login name and then try again."
Now in Novell, it is possible to have user names that are the same, as long has they have different relative distinguised names (RDNs). | |

| A user must be placed in a container. The container in which the user is placed may be a child container object of another container. However, a user object cannot be in 2 places at the same time. What distinguishes one user object from another is its security ID (SID). If 2 user objects were created from the same template, they will have 2 different SIDs. If a user object is deleted and recreated with the same user name, it will still have a different SID than it had had previously before deletion. |
