you can only install PowerShell on XP / 2003 +
(there is a hack for W2K but not supported.)

you can use WMI to manage an NT server remote from Posh,
but the WMI version/support of NT is not as good as e.g. XP
you will miss a lot of the new classes

Marc,

Where can I find information about the hack?

Thanks

It's simple:

From a machine that has PowerShell installed:
- copy "%ProgramFiles%\Windows PowerShell" directory
- export reg key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell
to the Windows 2000 machine.

Thanks, Jouko.

You can also use this technique to run PowerShell from a remote network
location (or could during the first beta of this year).

See the other responses - but the basic answer is 'no'.

Upgrade to a more modern OS would be the best bet.
