Take a look at the various security options for restricting anonymous access in
XP/2003. There are I believe five options instead of the one in W2K to give more
granular control to anonymous access which may be necessary in certain network
configurations to some degree. The Windows 2003 Security Guide and the Threats and
Countermeasure Guide for XP/2003 give some specific recommendations on these and
other security options. --- Steve
