Hello! I need to change my company's in-house network (running on Windows 2k (2000) ) from having a Workgroup network to a Domain network.
(1) What do I have to do to the server to change it into a Domain server (from Workgroup?)
(2) What do I have to do to the clients to change them [mostly Win Xp PRO, some '98s (sp2)] to work off the Domain?
Please be as specific as possible - I'm not so good with these "antique" technologies! :)

1. Run dcpromo command at command prompt and install Active directory along and make your win200 server domain...there is option comes for domain controller name and dns name..
you have to convert your fat to ntfs its a neccessary.
2. In clients you have to give domain name in network Settings. goto client for microsft neworks and click on propertis. there u have to mention the domain name .
