Sharepoint actually has the ability to use either Domain logins or locally
created logins. The local accounts can be set via a template. You don't need
a Domain Controller or any other server to run Sharepoint Team Services if
you dont want to. It can run standalone with nothing else.

I have not used the document but the following was found in a search on
Technet.
