Another thread asks about using Win2k Server with AD in an NT 4 domain.
I don't need AD yet and just want to use an existing Win2k Server as a file server in an NT environment. (I want to avoid having to blank the machine and install NT4.) AD is not running (machine currently in default WORKGROUP), so I plan to add the computer as I would any client - giving the domain name and an admin user/pwd to authorise. Anything wrong with that approach?
