Software Restriction Policies will be available as soon as the first Windows
Server 2003 Domain Controller are deployed within the particular active
directory domain. At the client side you have to run at least Windows XP.

I am currently using software restriction policies in a Windows 2000
domain against XP clients. I have no 2003 domain controllers anywhere
in the forest, and I never have.
After installing the latest GPMC and adm file updates to an XP client
that I manage my domain from, I was able to create and deploy software
restriction policies within my 2000 domain that are working perfectly
against my Windows XP clients.
Before you say I'm full of beans, try it. It works.
I'm not sure that it actually resides in an adm file
When I go onto any of my Win2k DC's (which don't have the GPMC or
anything installed on them) I can't manage the software restriction
policies. However from my desktop, I can, and they work. I don't know
whether that functionality was added due to the GPMC update, the SP2
adm file updates, 2k3 admin tools, or what.
