Single-Label Domain issue with Windows Vista Business

[Antonio]

I need to connect five new Vista Business desktops to my Windows 2000
server single-label domain. I am aware that single-label domains are
not recommended, but Microsoft issued some workarounds to resolve the
problem with XP Professional.
I cannot find any posting that solves the issue with Vista.

I cannot rename the domain in Windows 2000 and my server cannot be
upgraded to Wondows 2003 because of storage space --- It requires at
least 15 GB of free space.

Any help?
