Hi, I've been trying to figure out how to use the admin tools in NTWorkstation to administer the domain. I mainly want to use User Manager and Server Manager, but I can only use them for the local machine. Is this possible, or am I stuck having to get NTServer at my desk? Thanks for any help

What you want is available on the NT Server CD in (i think) the support\tools folder. Inside of there, you will find another folder. One in 95, one for NT. The tools you desire are in there.
Don't quote me on the exact location of the CD but they are definately there and what you are attempting to do can definately be done. No, you don't need to have Server on your desktop. You can even run some of the tools you want from a 9x computer.
Good luck.

Correct. The 95 tools can be dowloaded, too.
If you have NT Workstation, you can just copy them from the server's system32 folder, too, and create another shortcut.
