local user vs. network user

[Sarah Russell]

I just set up a wireless peer to peer network with 10
computers, all with XP pro as there operating system. I'm
now at the point where I'm setting up user accounts for
the 50 students at my school and was wondering if there
is a way to just set them up once for the whole network
or if they will need to be put them in as local users for
each computer. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

In a peer to peer design each machine will only=20
recognized the accounts defined on itself.
If you do not want to use a domain, the best you will=20
be able to do is to batch or script the account definition=20
so that you have one thing you may execute on each of=20
the machines.

I really appreciate your help. How do I batch or script
the account definition?
Thanks again
