My client has around 50 computers and need to be networked. The requirement is users will be provided with a user id and password, so that he/she can login to any system and their working files will be accessible across the systems. They work on Autocad and other similar design softwares. No need for share one person's file with others.

Network the computers, put them in the domain, set the users to have roaming profiles, install the same image on all machines, and tell the users not to store stuff locally.

Um, a pre-requisite for "putting them on the domain" is a Server acting as a Domain controller, and a server (possibly the same one) acting as a file server for files, profiles etc...

If an "IT Consultant" doesn't realise that a server is required to create a domain, then there's something seriously wrong! ;)
