| others for my SysAdmin needs.
| 
| I am about to deploy a new set of XPProSP2 machines. I do not currently 
| have an Active Directory set up. After configuring the user's profile, 
| I'd like to "lock" the profile down so that the user cannot change the 
| Desktop Properties, Start Menu Properties, Task Bar Properties, etc.
| 
| So, my questions, in no particular order, are:
| 
| Is this already set as a default policy for one of the default groups 
| (such as Users?)
| 
| How do I view/edit the Group policies on a local machine?
| 
| In the absence of an Active Directory, how do I achieve what I want?
