Hi Jay,

So near and yet so far... :)  The translate() function there is
translating all the *uppercase* letters in the UserId to *lowercase*,
whereas you're comparing it with an *uppercase* string.  So it'll
never match.  What you meant was:

   root/CamUsers[translate(@UserId,'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz',
   'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ') = 'ADMIN']

or:

   root/CamUsers[translate(@UserId,'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ',
   'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz') = 'admin']

I hope that helps,

Jeni
