Unless you have special requirements, leave it as 'client user', since 
it's easier to handle that way.

It's possible 'nobody' doesn't really exist (could be a fiction created 
by the XP Home frontend, which likes to treat everyone as 'Guest' when 
it can), or possibly is not allowed network login right (unsurprising as 
XP home doesn't actually support network logins...)
