    Default Roaming Users on Network

    Hi!

    I am new to networking and am working on setting a small
    two computer network up. Right now it is the type where
    there is just one big shared folder and the rest is
    different depeding on which computer you use. I think the
    other kind uses roaming users or something and each person
    has their own documents that they can get and it is the
    same nomatter which computer they log on to. My question is
    if I wanted to have it set up the second way do I need a
    server of some sort or can the computers just do it without
    a seperate server. Any help or info would be greatly
    appreciated!

    Thanks!
    Jeff
