How to copy local group policies?

[Guest]

Hi,

I have a peer to peer network of 4 Win XP Pro computers. I configured a
local group policy on one of them and I want to copy it over to the other 3
in the least amount of administrative effort.

Any advice?

thanks a lot.

This won't help you directly, but in a workgroup environment, I prefer
to bypass the policy configuration and use the registry keys directly,
applied to the system or account as required.

Registry key changes can be kept in a text file with .reg extension, as
you may know. These files can be "merged" onto other systems easily, or
incorporated in logon scripts.

I use winguides.com as a basic reference, as well as technet and such to
build up a list of keys that are required to accomplish various account
tweaks and restrictions. I'd be happy to share some keys with you.
