Though I know that there will be as many opinions as people on this list as to the subject, my preference is from Microsoft themselves. They have developed a very comprehensive Security Configuration guide which includes templates that mimic the best practices from the guide, as well as other job aids to help you get the job done.
Find the guides here: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/prodtech/windowsserver2003.mspx http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/prodtech/windows2000.mspx Or, for the whole set, look here under "Security Products and Technologies" http://www.microsoft.com/technet/Security/default.mspx Make no mistake - I won't take away from the NSA guides, SANS, or any of the other very reputable sources for guidance in this subject. However, I've had complete success with the above referenced guides.
