"NT Authority/NetworkService" not available as a login

Just installed Server 2003 and then SQL server 2000 followed by sp3a and I'm trying to use an ASP.NET program called DNN which wants "NT Authority / NetworkService" user for access to the database. However, "NT Authority / NetworkService" is not showing
up in the database after installation.
Why is this?
How can I fix it?
Thanks
OK...finally, out of frustration, I just pasted in the name 'NT Authority/NetWorkService'
Start at:
SQL Server Enterprise Manager,
Security node,
Logins node (right click and select New Login),
SQL Server Login properties - New Login,
Paste 'NT Authority/NetWorkService' into the 'name field'
The 'NT Authority/NetWorkService' user was created and it also appears to work properly.
