Network Server

How can I use Windows Server 2008 to created user accounts over a home network?
I have a copy of Windows Server 2008 (not WHS) and I want to know whether I can create user acount(s) that can be accessed over our home network.
Windows Server 2008 (includes ALL versions) is a legal copy, that I got through the MSDN Alliance. Thanks for the help.
1. Server 2008 must be setup as a Domain Controller
2. Client computers must be capable of joining a domain
(Home versions of anything won't work; they need to be XP Pro, Vista Business, Enterprise, or Ultimate. Unless you want to use Win98...lol)
3. Client computers then need to join the domain, using a Server 2008 administrator account.
4. Create all the user accounts you want
5. Those users should then be able to log in to any computer on your new network!
If you don't create a domain, then user accounts on the server can still be created and used to access it's resources, but it kinda defeats the whole purpose of having a server.
