With a Server running Windows 2000 Server, DHCP enabled, how do I configure to allow only certain workstaion to access internet?

With solely NAT between users and Internet, it would not be easy; you can tell the NAT to allow only certain IP addresses but then, DHCP...
So using a proxy (instead of or next to NAT) might make sense. In the proxy let the users authenticate themselves, or have the proxy authenticate directly against ADS as in MS Proxy (--> now ISA Server). Note that a proxy does not require client software - solely a specific configuration of the browser.

You can use a proxy server, or a firewall. Is there a router/NAT box in this network?

Two questions:

1) Do you have a firewall?

2)Do you want to prevent individuals or entire organisation?

Please reply for answers.
