I have not tested jcNTUserFolder under Windows 2000, but it should work
except, I guess, if you run Windows 2000 in 'native' mode.

the roles given to the user in the sub-folder *replace* the roles
defined in higher folders, due to the way user folders work. the user in
the subfolder must have the same role as in higher folders (so he can
traverse the higher folders), plus any new roles in the subfolder.

jcNTUserFolder was developped because htrd's NT User Folder has not this
functionality, which I needed also.
