Well, you do have a problem with W2K and more than 10 Workstations: it's
the EULA. If you read the EULA that it's inclosed in your W2K Pro CD,
you will notice that you can't use W2K Pro for more than 10 connections.

It's a legal problem, not a tech one. I had a client with more than 30
connections using W2K Pro for a long time, and he find out the EULA
problem. My client is using Linux now, so I remember this very well: it
was the first time that a M$ EULA help one client to achive better
results. ;-)
