Is it possible to recreate the Anonymous_User group in Win2k3 that
would have existed had I upgraded from Windows 2000?

I just want to share a printer over classic Windows networking to
Windows 2000 guests without having them encounter the "Login:" box &
have to enter "Guest" and no password each time. Of course, the Guest
account is on, and I have modified the machine's Local Security Policy
to allow anonymous users to see the network shares on the machine.

Basically, I want all anonymous users connecting from my LAN to map to
the Guest account automatically.

IIS anonymous access still works OK.
