XP Authentication

[Patrick Mason]

Quick question here, Is there a way in Windows XP to
force it to use a certain server for authentication?

Logon Authentication, We are upgarding a schools network,
The high school, Elementary School and Administration
building are in one town and the Middle School is located
about 3 Miles away in another town. They have a 2 Mbps
Wireless connection between the Middle School and The High
School to connect the Network together. We would like to
have the Middle School Users only use the Middle School
Server for Logon Authentication to reduce the traffic on
the wireless link. Is there a way to force the Xp clients
at the Middle School to only use the Middle School server
for logon authentication?

yes you can use VPN ( if both sites have internet connection) or dial up
in any case you will need to have a server server and from the XP client
create a dial up profile.
