Group Policy & Remote Destop

[Kevin]

Is there a way of configuring (enabling at the least)
Remote Desktop using group policy. I am already aware of
the KnowledgeBase Article 306300
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306300) but I want to
know if I can, through GP, configure a computer to allow
users to connect remotely to that computer without being
there physically to log on as Admin and set this up.

The basic aim is creating a method to enable Remote
Desktop without being physically present at each
computer. It would save me from traveling all around the
state to some 100+ sites.

Thanks as well for the info, I used it and it worked well although it was on
Windows 2003 and the option was named a bit differently.

What I would like to do is to add specific users that can use RDP on these
workstations (450+ in my case). I realize that there's a local Remote
Desktop Users group. Do I have to individualy add people to this though or
is there a GPO method that will let me do this. Maybe a script?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Chris
