- Microsoft Windows for Workgroups 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is no functional difference between a Microsoft LAN Manager
domain and a Windows for Workgroups (WFWG) workgroup. Both domain and
workgroup refer to a logical grouping of servers and clients within a
local area network (LAN).

For example, finance domain means the same thing as finance workgroup.
