Just need to make a shortcut to the right .MSC program (.exe for MMC).

Can't remember the right name for users and computers, but locals users and computers is LUSRMGR.MSC. Look into your \\serveur\system32\*.msc to find out the right name.

The "Active Directory Users and Computers" console is "dsa.msc" and is stored in the \WINNT\System32 directory.

You can install/uninstall the Administrative Tools by running ADMINPAK.MSI from the \I386 folder on the W2K Server installation media.The tools can be installed to a W2K Pro workstation as well.
