I have a very small office type setup and for various reasons am using
Exchange Enterprise server 2003 with windows enterprise server 2003.

Can someone point to a very basic set of directions on how to set up
exchange server for the 10 computers I am using in house so they have
access to mail and calendar's via Outlook 2003. In particular, I am
having difficulty with getting users on XP Home machines to supply the
correct password to the server.

Passwords set on server match complexity and other security requirements
suggested by Server software. Machines will connect to the server via
Administrator's username and password, but not the users assigned name
and password.

Thanks for any help.

Installs are all next, next, next.
Enterprise is overkill for that many.
Home won't attach to the domain, that is the problem. You'll need XP Pro.

Not a set of instructions, but since Nick's response said that Home Edition
won't join the domain, i wanted to point out to you that you don't
necessarily have to join the Domain. I'm in the process of setting up
Exchange and this is likely the route I will be taking. Assuming Outlook
2003 is your client, you are prompted for server name and credentials the
first time you set up Outlook to use an Exchange server. Outlook can then
remember the credentials. Hope this gives a helpful perspective
