We are upgrading from metaframe v1.8 (NT4.0 operating system) to metaframe XPa (Win2000 operating system). Is there any differences in the procedures to install applications?

Not really any differences. In Win2K you'll see mostly the same sort of response. Installing so everyone can use the programs you can do the command line 'change user /install' and 'change user /execute' or go in through the Add/Remove programs. There is a lot more control of file system, so be careful. It's easier to propagate rights down the chain, and make sure that after you finish the install and build out that you set the 'All Users' directory, under documents and settings to read-only orelse everyone will be able to change everyone else' settings.
