>If you log into the domain (when you look at the User in User Manager, your logon ID is DomainName/UserName) then the domain's authentication can be used to authorize access to other domain members and other domains with trust relations.

I am asumeing at this point. I'll call our CA office to get better details but it's 4:30 am there now.

Base system is 2 NT4W machines. The Login's are MGR and SHOP. MGR has Administrator Rights on both machines.

There is no Domain, only a workgroup.

I don't want any black "DOS" boxes. This should just be a quick copy of the zip file when the file is created.
