Windows 2000 and novell

I run a novell network and was considering moving the clients over to 2000. I set up a local account and set everything up there and then copied the account to the default user. This account has admin right on the local machine. B when i log the newperson in it stops and wants to match the novell and 2000 passwords up. But if you try and log in after that it will stop the next person and then it screws the first person up. Is there any way to stop this annoying process?
