Yes they work.
We are in the middle of developing our revised XP GPO's. The problem we
have run into is that most of our XP pro SP1 machines will not show all
of the available GPO settings under: user config/windows settings. On
all but one XP machine the only thing listed is RIS and scripts. On the
XP machine that works correctly we have all of the settings (IE RIS, scripts,
Security settings, folder redirection and IE maintenance). I have an
incident open with MS which has been booted up to
development.
FWIW the .net admin
pak has some really cool features. The RSoP mmc, which provides a
graphical display of what GPO settings have been applied to a user/computer
and from what GPO they came from really helps when you are
troubleshooting.

GPOs
First
thing to download is the .net beta adminpak.msi:
Then, you can look at the new
group policies and explanations that will only affect XP. In fact, each GP
will have a statement "At least Windows 2000" or "At least XP Pro", etc.
Also, does anyone know if the
new policies actually 'work' yet, or do we have to
wait until we have a .net server running on our
domain?

GPOs
I am
trying to find some information on the differences in GPOs for Windows 2000
and XP. Any links or whitepapers to reference would be great.
