Yes, I'm using the ntconfig.POL for XP users. by 'default' I'm referring
to the default profile for new users. I use the copy facility to copy a
default profile on top of the new users (local) profile on their machine,
then log on as that user and log out (which copies the 'new' profile) to
the server. I would have used the 'default user' profile (placed in the
netlogon share), but I've noticed a few differences between Win2K and WinXP
so I do it manually instead.
