Hello, I have just been informed that our DCs are scheduled to be upgraded to Windows 2003 service pack 1. I run the GPMC on a Windows XPsp2 PC. As long as I only use an XPsp2 machine to run the GPMC I should not have any problems, correct? It is only if I run the GPMC from the DC that my ADM templates would get updated. I just want to be sure that I don't have to worry about my current settings getting overwritten. Thanks for your help. Mary Collingwood
