How do I configure an automatic Logon with GPO?

[OKI]

Hello

I have a Windows 2003 AD Domain and need to setup automatic logins to Win XP
Pro based PCs. GPOs are in place to restrict the Program Menu and the
Desktop to 1 or 2 application icons. Also, there will be no Run command, no
Control Panel etc, only the applications and the Shutdown command.

I have done the manual registry hacks to do the auto logins in the past but
I am wondering if there is a way to have a GPO applied to a computer in a
specified OU, to apply the registry hack for the auto logon.

Thanks for your help.
