Lara, I am trying to refresh my memory since I had to perform the same steps while rebuilding our test environment a while back. Basically, we had to do it in 2 steps in the order listed below.
1. Create and import a custom ADM template that predefines the Kerberos REALM key in the registry. This insures that the REALM name is created in UPPERCASE. If you try doing this in SCEREGVL.INF file, the realm name is created, but in lowercase. Proceed to step 2 once the registry key has been propagated. 2. Edit the SCEREGVL.INF file and add the specific entries for your KERBEROS realm. Once you reload the file, the settings will show up under the Computer Configuration node within Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options. I have added the sample ADM file and entries for the Security Configuration Editor file below. Also, if you haven't already, you may also want to look at the NSA Windows 2000 Security Configuration guides at: http://www.nsa.gov/snac/downloads_win2000.cfm?MenuID=scg10.3.1.1 I hope this helps.
