Hi,
I need a reference to directions for setting up a small peer to peer xp network without having every individual User login a 100000000 times.

Thanks
John

After setting up the switch and making sure all the PC's are on the same network, duplicate the accouts for the PC's to all the PC's in the group.

So each local User group should have all the accounts for all the users with the same password.

Should result in nobody needing to enter username and password across the PC's on the network.
You will have issues when a user wants to change the password, becaus then you need to change the password at all PCs.

But if its required that users change passwords and still need cross PC operability you should look in to a small business server.
