WinXP Pro and NT 4.0 Server policy issue

[techdb]

Hello all,

I seem to be having a little problem. I am working in a new environment with NT 4.0 Servers and XP& 98 wksts. When it comes to setting policies to lockdown the workstations I am used to using Group Policy either locally(Windows 2000/XP) or creating them from the back end(Windows 2000 server. However, the servers are usually Windows 2000. Is it possible to create policies to lockdown Windows XP workstations from the NT 4.0 server since AD cannot come into play?

Maybe I overlooked something.

Thanks

Yes - you can use System Policy Editor on the NT server (also, some policy settings in User manager for Domains) - but NT has less options than 2k/XP.
