Dan If policies are set this way to say 200 PC's - ie the policies are all local. What would you do if you wanted to change a setting? Would you need to connect to each PC and run gpedit.msc on every PC? I know if there was an AD backend, you could make the change once only. Is there a way to update the local policies via a command line - ie is there 1 file that contains the settings which you could run as part of a login script? Manually making the change on each PC via gpedit would be an administrative nightmare..

We have begun to bring in win2k servers with Metaframe XPe to replace the nt4 servers. We have not upgraded our domain to w2k so we don't have active directory yet. I would like to use group policies but that requires AD is there any other way to use group policies in this mixed environment?? Can I use the nt4 policy on a w2k server?? Is there another way to "lock the users down" until we can get to AD. =20 =20 Thanks =20 Scott Williams _________________________________________________________________ Broadband? Dial-up?
