I have a NT 4 Domain with all win2k clients. I upgraded all clients to SP4

The handle is invalid.
I read the MSDN article 821546. What I need to do is to add to the local
security policy the useraccount to "Impersonate a client after
authentication" to all of the win2k clients.
How can i do this without using AD and group policies?
Create a template such as Users_Impersonate_On.INF
Place the INF file on a network share. e.g.,
\\<SomeServer>\path\Impersonate_On.INF
----- Impersonate_On.INF -----
[Unicode]
Unicode=yes
[Version]
signature="$CHICAGO$"
Revision=1
[Profile Description]
Description=Adds the Impersonate a client after authentication privilege to the group Users
[Privilege Rights]
; S-1-5-32-545 is BUILTIN\Users
; Following users have SeImpersonatePrivilege by default
; S-1-5-6 is NT AUTHORITY\SERVICE
; S-1-5-32-544 is BUILTIN\Administrators
SeImpersonatePrivilege = *S-1-5-32-545,*S-1-5-6,*S-1-5-32-544
----- Impersonate_On.INF -----
See secedit /? for more options.
Creating an SDB file from the INF and using that is possible.
Script something less clunky but like this on the Win2k clients
copy %WINDIR%\security\database\secedit.sdb %WINDIR%\security\database\secedit2.sdb
secedit /configure /db %WINDIR%\security\database\secedit2.sdb /cfg
