Accounts are now stored within Active Directory.

> I have a server running w2k server it has been set up as just a file
server with access allowed to everyone in the company. I would like to
change that and take advantage of AD. What will happen when I use the AD
wizard to set up the server as a PDC? The wizard says it will remove all
local accounts, then what. Is there any articles that anyone could point me
to, that would walk through a simmilar situation?
