I post a message few days ago, my problem is similar with u :=20
=09HOW CREATE GPO ?

but i still don't have to correct answer too. Some one send me poledit.ex=
e=20
from the nt 4 server cd but i don't want to use it: i don't have this lic=
ense=20
cd.

According to me, there is 3 ways to create gop :
=09- the first: by using the poledit.exe from the nt4 server cd
=09- or by downdloading freely the adminpak.msi from the microsoft site i=
f u=20
have a license of Windows XP pro (+sp1)
=09- or by using the active directory 's MMC from any windows 2000/XP ser=
ver

My probl=E8me is that i don't have any XP, 2000 server, NT4 server. So i =
can't=20
create some GPO.
I don't find a way to create a GPO, using a Windows 2000 pro
