Hi

I am applying GPO's on my network. The polices work fine on the W2K and XP
clients. I understand that I will need to keep a NTCONFIG.POL for the NT4
Clients. My network uses 3 W2K DC's. Can someone advise how I should go
about setting this NTCONFIG.POL up.

Thanks in advance
 
Ha!

Can I just claify, the beer has muddled my brain.

My NT4 Clients (W2K User accounts) will not have the GPO applied as this is
a full W2K Domain. To apply a policy I need to create with poledit a policy
and place it in the sysvol within the W2K Domain.

Thansk again

Yes, you need to use ntconfig.pol files for the down-level clients.

There doesn't seem to be many polices, is it possible to apply the password
policy, and lockout policy?
