Local Policies

[ductTape]

I have set up local policies on one Win XP Pro machine and would like to have these same policies on all XP Pro machines.

Does anyone know how to export/import local policies on a Win XP Pro machine?

Thanks!

Do a search on google and lookup windows xp security templates. These templates will allow you to copy security policies from one machine to another.

a "classic" way to do this is to set up a win2k server and join the other xp machines to this (server)-domain.

Then on the win2k server you edit the domain security policy and that's all. It will apply to all the xp machines joined to this server.

I will look into that thanks!

Thanks, I should have stated that this is on a Novell Network without any Windows Servers. I knew I could use domain level policies if these machines were authenticating to a Windows 2000 or .net server.
