I began one of my instances of DNN with just a Host or Parent Portal.  As we know it happens alot, the need for a child portal just came up recently.  I created it and was able to create the administrator for it with the same username as
 the parent portal.  However, there is a username I wanted to use on the child portal that is already taken in the parent.

I cannot create the new profile using the same username.  DNN tells me that the username already exists, but the username cannot be used to login to the child portal. 

I expect that this is behavior by design, but I need to find some sort of work around for this.  I do not want to have users need to have multiple usernames, but I want to keep the child portal in its own sandbox like it is. 

Can someone please enlighten me?  :)
