Steve,
I agree completely. You can't have profiles or permissions in a WG without a
ton of administrative work.
(I wonder if we hit our 500 message limit yet?) ;o)

100% correct - as he said, if you want individuals to have specific rights,
each device has it's own accounts. It's a real PITA on each device - try to
talk them into a low end server to at least share the resources centrally.

But he did mention that he wants each user to have his own profile and
permissions.

We have a workgroup environment for one of our remote offices. You actually
figured out what you'll do. Create a user (or use the administrator account)
and let everybody logon with this username and password (same password). No
more problems.
As you know, if you have a workgroup, them the SAM database is local! That
means each W2K computer will have its own SAM and it will let access to its
resources only if the user, who is trying to acess, is defined in its own
SAM database. That's why the above solution will work properly :)
