You could try comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows or get a news
reader and just search there for discussion group.
maybe here http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/community/default.mspx
and google helps a bit
http://www.google.com/microsoft
(http://www.google.com/linux and http://www.google.com/freebsd too for
non winders people)

This is just my experience, but it seems rather hard to get anyone who
works with windows to help on a newsgroup. They want you to buy a book
or get MCS-idontrealyknowwhatsup-E certified. You'll find people that
will help, but not to the same degree as in the open source world -
where people just want to help for helps sake - it more of a whats in it
for me ($$) kind of thing in windows land.
The exception to this, that I have found, is this list - where most
people are very cool and try to help no matter what you are doing with
what on what. Maybe someone will help you off list...
