Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to set up my vista business PC as a
domain server and allow other PCs connect to it under a .local domain. I want
to set up a domain for my house just because I'd have more control over what
goes on.

Thank you in advance

Only a Windows Server 2000/2003/2008 computer can be a domain controller for
an Active Directory domain.
