Security goes away when someone refreshes the Front End

Help!!! This is driving me nuts!

We have created a DB for a company. We split the DB. Everything seems
to work well except for this one thing.

Every time we refresh the front end of a user, the security file
looses all security that was set. Each user has a desktop shortcut
that they access their front end from. The front end points to the
back end that resides on a computer. The security file is there as
well.

We have had to redo the security at least 20 times and I know there
must be something small that we are missing.

Can anyone please make suggestions?

Thanks.

Your shortcut should include the workgroup file:
<path_to>msaccess.exe <path_to>frontend.mdb /wrkgrp <path_to>some.mdw
