Hi,
I've created a win2k automated setup, automated the application installs and all is going quite well. However i want to customise a whole bunch of little things, sich as the boot.ini time out, event log sizes, not disaply last username on the logon screen etc - which are all available in group policy.
However, this is not a AD environment :-(. Does anyone know the bext way to export these properties and have them in a file i can apply to all new servers as part of the build???

I am not going to be able to give you the answer, I will try to point you in the right direction. All the items that are changed through group policies are just registry changes. So you need to write a script that will make these changes for you. You can search to find how/where these changes are made in the registry.

Sorry i could not be any more help, I just figured I would give you some ideas.

Good luck, and let me know how it turns out, I would be interested in know how you did it.
