Glenn,

Only thing to do is the create a terminal server OU and move your server
there.
Then create a new policy for that OU and add all the policy files you
previously had.
After that you only (......I can hear you think and yell) have to set all
the policy settings the way you had before.

greetings and good luck
Rob
