How to connect Windows 2000 Sever to a peer to peer network??

[Alvin]

How can I connect a PC with Windows 2000 Sever OS to a
peer to peer network where I can share files and printers
on the network. The PC was not really set up as a server.
I have access to the internet through the network, but can
really access to the network and share files and printers.
Can anyone help me out and show me the configurations.

Thank you very much!!

Alvin
