yea i was more commenting i needed 98 support which is why i snagged server 2k3, I could have gotten server 2008 for 20 dollars more, not 2008 R2, original 2008 but windows 98 domain support is rather lacking for it. My biggest concern now is that I'm about to be married, and will have a very curious 5 year old running around, and I want to secure the 98 machine the best i can, and a domain seems logical to do that, as well as allowing logins on every machine for the family instead of creating user accounts on my desktop, my laptop, her laptop, and her daughters desktop for all of us, joining it to one domain seems simpler 🤣.
And before you ask, her laptop, kids desktop, my laptop are all running windows 7 Pro, my desktop runs 8.1 pro, my XP box is running XP pro, and of course 98 🤣.
