I will be using a standalone Win2K machine on which I will likely not
have admin access.  Will this be a problem, if I choose to install
only for the account of interest?  There are various web references to
the requirement for admin, but they are generally associated with
specific packages e.g. OpenSSH.

I will be creating the installation CD from a WinXP machine.  Will the
installation CD be OS-agnostic and thus be suitable for a Win2K target
machine?


Thanks.
