upgrade to 2000 joining a domain while maintaining workgroup

Would like to upgrade to win 2000 pro from 98. Like 98 you
can logon to a domain while maintaining a workgroup.

Is it at all possible to upgrade to win 2000 join the
domain but also maintain a workgroup enviroment?

Fortress remote console needs to admin based on workgroups.

What do you think?

Thanks

Greetings --

A Win2K Pro workstation can be a domain member _or_ a workgroup
member; it cannot be both. The networking paradigms are mutually
exclusive. (A Win98 machine _cannot_ ever become a domain member,
although a properly authenticated user can use it to access domain
resources, making it appear to the uninitiated that it was a domain
member.)

If you computer are in Workgroup, When you need one resouce to the domain
immediately ask for login and password.
maybe you can have problem if you Domain Contror is DHCP too.
