I just got a pc with xp home. I have spent several hours
trying to set up the system so that I can either log onto
the network or computer at start up. I use server 2000, xp
professional and win 2k. Is there anyway to do this?
Right now I have to access the network and log into each
folder.

XP Home Edition can't join a domain or log into a domain. It can
connect to a domain and access domain resources. For details, please
see these sites:
