Changing user name
When I try to change the user name (while in root user) I can't see the user I am trying to change under "other accounts" What am I missing? on 10.6.4.
Thanks very much!

tried this, but again, the user name I want to change is not there. I can however sign in as the name I am trying to change (so I know it exists)
Thanks Klaus1. However, when I get here:
In the list of accounts on the left, right-click (or Control-click) on the name of the account you want to modify; choose Advanced Options from the resulting menu.
The name of the account I want to modify is not there. That is my problem.
also. The Mac I am trying to change the name on is the administrator of a network server. Basically, I am the new teacher in a music tech class and want to keep all the old files that were left for me, but change the name to my name. I am currently logging in as the old teacher.
Thanks for any help.
