My recomendation is window 2000 as NT is already on extended support from Microsoft and will not be supported after June 30, 2004.

Just a question what are the workstation's o/s?

According to me you prefer Windows 2000 network.

Cause there are lots of advantages over windows NT Server.
1st of all the ADS ie Active directory sytucture. 2nd one Terminal Service. Cluster support.Lots of thing are there. You can go to microsoft site check out for the more things.

I recommend going with 2k server. But install your service packs 1-3 and all your security updates. We went from NT 4.0 Server to 2K Server about 18 months ago and all is running GREAT. But have you ever thought about throwing a Linux server in there somewhere. Well have fun.
