confusion about W2003 SP1 security configuration wizard



Have read some documents and the online help of the SCW, have also examined
a XML configuration file created by the SCW.

To be sure, is it correct,

- that when applying an SCW template to a server, that all these values are
written directly into the servers registry and into the local security
policy?
- that every setting defined in a GPO (like auditing configuration) will
override the settings defined and applied by the SCW as soon as the GPO's
are processed?
- supposeing someone create an SCW template and apply it to a server, and
the template get lost: That there is no way to bring the server into the
state before the SCW was applied (except system state restore)?

Thank you all in advance for any answers!
Franz
