That's a good idea. With NT4 systems the limit was 8 machines once you
enabled that feature. I think Server2003 Domain systems don't have a limit.
I'm not sure what Server2000 Domains did.

There is a chance we may use this in the future at our place.

Unfortuneately, with the laptop situation they would just log into the
Laptop with a local account and avoid the restriction. Then when accessing
files they would be prompted for credentials,..they'd enter them and copy
the files.
