This is easy with NT Server and Win2K server but for the workstation
version you will need to do a lot yourself. You cannot use the
workstation account to login on all other machines so you will need to
create the same accounts and passwords on all machines. You will need
to manually sync any password changes on all machines too. There is a
connection limit of 10 concurrent users for the workstation versions.

Lots. far too many to answer here. Ex 2000 required Win2K server and
active directory so on top of the Ex2K changes there are all the Win2K
changes.
