Thanks very much :)  Now i just need to wait for this long weekend to finish 
(which just started :/) so I can get back in the office and get this 
working! )

Few final questions if you [extremely] helpful guys don't mind answering.

1)  Do I have to enable "ntserver" in CP?
2)  Do I have to restart the server after changing the options?
3)  Is there a guide anywhere, to once the server is working to how I want 
it, to "securing" it?  Disable all the protocols which are not needed, 
testing it for vunerabilties etc?  One of the repositories is for Documents, 
which will contain all our company's highly important papers and 
documents...

Thanks again :)
