I don't have an XP box handy, but I'm sure they're there. However, they're
not "real" groups, like "Administrators" or "Users" or "Power Users".
They're contextual groups - their membership is determined at runtime, so to
speak. Whenever you log in, you're a member of "Authenticated Users".
Whenever you connect, whether you log in or not (such as when you create a
null session), you're a member of "Everyone". You won't see these contextual
groups within the Users & Groups section of Computer Management, but you
will be able to assign permissions to them within the filesystem or
Registry.
