Hi
If you have used a Windows XP SP2 computer to administer the Group
Policy settings in the domain, the adm files should automatically
have been updated.
Group Policy Template Behavior in Windows Server 2003

I would think most things in the link above applies to Win2k as well.
Recommendations for managing Group Policy administrative
template (.adm) files

A discussion about it here:

See here on how Jeff updated the Default Domain Policy templates when
they would not do it automatically:

You can also download the latest .adm files from here:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=31057
If you install the WinXP SP2 .adm files on the domain controller, but
you don't use WinXP SP2 to edit the GPO settings, you may you get the
message below, install the hotfix that is available in the KB article
in the link below to solve this.
"The following entry in the [strings] section is too long and has
been truncated" error message when you try to modify or to view GPOs
in Windows Server 2003, Windows XP Professional, or Windows 2000
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=842933
Also, or a complete list of Group Policy options for the WinXP SP2, see

Windows XP with Service Pack 2":
