Default Can't see network on local pc

I just got one of our pc's running on winxp pro. I can access the
network but I can't see it when I go into Computer ManagementLocal
Users and GroupsGroupsAdministrators. What do I need to do so that
the network shows up?

What exactly are you expecting to see in administrators that you can not
find. Are you on an Active Directory domain?? --- Steve

If you're trying to manage network accounts, you're looking in the wrong
place - you're looking at the local Windows account (heance the *Local*
Users and Groups). You need to install the Active Directory tools from the
Windows Server CD onto your Pro PC to be able to admin the Domain accounts,
you'll end up with a bunch of Active Directory tools in the Adminstrative
Tools on your PC.
