re: Question about a business server

we have remote access to offsite servers for our documentation. It is not specifically linked to our place of business as i can pull up my remote desktop at home from my PC.
I do believe that we currently are able to sign on at any work station right now with our user ID's but to be honest all of us only ever log on to our own workstation which would eliminate the need for a linked network user name.
Just trying to help figure out if it's really a necessity as we have been brainstorming and can't find too many reasons.
The IT company would have us believe it is necessary but that is likely due to the nice paycheck that would go into their pocket for setup.

From what you've described you guys don't have to have a server. The workstations would need to be removed from the domain and local accounts would need to be created for anyone wanting to login at each workstation. Would need to make sure the router/firewall is handling DHCP and DNS functions.
