Deploying SharePoint Server 2007 in a WorkGroup (not Domain) environment?

Question

Can anyone point me to any online resources on best practices for deploying MOSS 2007 in a Workgroup environment?

Answer 1

Active directory and domain are not requirements of MOSS 2k7
BUT Windows 2003 server is a must
If w2k3 server is installed, even without domain setup; just go through installation process
but you will be missing a lot of control and features
Authentication from AD is much better
Management of users is better
Think about AD + DOmain
