That what I thought. :-( Follow-up: Once you create the GPO, where exactly is it added, and shouldn't there be some way to duplicate the result w/out having to load the offending app on the machine running GPMC? I can't cheat and create an .ADM or something, can I?
It matters because I am certain there are more services I'll want to kill. I know I know, goes back to a process issue...

Create a VM snapshop or disk image in advance. Install the admin tools and Bonjour on it, create/edit the GPO from there. When done, rollback the VM to a previous snapshot, or reimage the PC. -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
