SPSUserUtil is a superset of WSSUserUtil, designed for working on SharePoint Portal Server Areas. Consider the following: We have an account named MYDOMAIN\margie.murphy.This account has permissions on various SharePoint sites.This accounts NT Login Name changes to MYDOMAIN\margie.richie for one of many different reasons (In our scenario, Margie married a really cool guy with the last name of Richie :))The NT Login Name for this account was synchronized with Active Directory using the steps provided in my previous post :) Using SPUserUtil to update accounts when the NT Login Name changes Hope this helps!!!!

The Dot Net Factory. SharePoint 2007 Employee Directory Web Part - Syrinx on SharePoint. Many of our clients have asked us about some type of function or Web Part that lets them show a list of users in their site collection, specifically from the "Users and Groups" list that they can control.

In order to do this we chose to write a custom Web Part.
