I am going to upgrade my secured sever workstations that
currently have NT on them to either XP Pro or 2000. My
question is, I know 2000 gives me added security to
protect from anyone bypassing windows signon securty and
allowing someone to access the local machine. Does XP Pro
also give the same security as NT? I need to ensure these
machines can not be logged onto like Win98 by bypassing
the network sign on and going directly into windows. I
need to secure these PCs to the highest level possible
like NT offered.
