Is there a utility that will allow the clients to transfer their login
profile from a client server (domain) type network (login profile) to a
workgroup login and keep all the shares and permissions? There will be a
"file server" for sharing files and the network hardware (router) will handle
the DHCP and firewall.

You might give this a go.

You can use the Copy To function to mirror the profile. Logon at least once
after disjoining the domain. Then while logged on as another user (with
administrative rights) Control Panel|System|Advanced|User Profiles|Settings,
select your oldprofile, Copy To, Browse to
%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\newprofile
Change "Permitted to use:" to "newprofile" OK.

OR---------------

Logon once to the new workgroup then run regedt32.exe and navigate to;

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList

locate the new profile SID and edit the Reg_Expand_Sz 'ProfileImagePath' to
point back to the old profile.

You'll need to start over as far as shares and permissions go.
