Yes, I followed the steps on World of Windows Networking
http://www.wown.com/ and got the Windows 2000 Server set up for Active
Directory and created a domain, no problem, named 'home.com'. But it
takes awhile to boot and I get lots of nasty error messages from my
ISP in the Event log.

The problem is that I want this to be strictly local. I don't want to
bug anyone else with my little test domain (but I still want to keep
my internet DSL connection on).
