Win 2003 Server as domain manager - howto setup

["Peter Dow (ML)" <maillist@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Everyone,

I've been asked to setup a Win 2003 server as the domain manager for my 
daughter's school.  They would also like it to be a proxy server.  My 
experience with Windows is limited to non-server versions so I'm looking 
for a good howto, or some documentation about managing this machine.  
Also any recommendations; as I understand it, the most common use of 
this server is simple file sharing, which could be done with just Win 
XP.  A proxy server could be done with a Linux box, but I have next to 
no experience with Linux (any flavor) and it would mean another 
machine.  This one is a pretty good machine:

Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4Ghz
4GB RAM
Mirrored 250GB disk
Dual 1Gbs ethernet

Any help is appreciated.
