GPOs on a 2003 domain with 2008 server

[acl03]

We have a 2003 native-mode domain. I have added a couple 2008 servers to it.

My question is about group policy. I have been using my XP desktop with the GPMC to modify GPO's. This works fine, even for 2008 servers.

But, I assume there are new GPO features that can be set on 2008, that were not available on 2003. Is there a list of what they are, and is it possible to roll these out without making any schema changes to my domain?

I guess the main question - how do I make the most use of policies and features of 2008 GPOs, while still using a 2003 domain?





Thanks,
Andrew
