You can "hide" Control Panel using Group Policy. Of course Group Policy offers much
more. For your specific question look under user configuration/administrative
templates/control panel. Domain policies of course are much easier to manage than
local policies. The links below about Group Policy may help. There is a lot more to
lan security than Group Policy including password policy, account lockout policy,
patch management, etc. See the last link for the Windows 2000 Security Hardening
Guide. --- Steve
