As far as SQL Server 2000 is concerned, Domain users are the way to go.
Windows authentication provides better security, better password control,
less 'user' maintenance for the DBA, etc..

It really is a 'no-brainer'.

We recently moved our main application from a work group environment, to
a
server environment.

What are the trade offs in having our users becoming part of our new
domain
or to remain in their work group and access SQL Server through Server
Authentication?

Hope to hear from you soon
