Urgent help: LOcal Security Policy deplyement ???

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.setup_deployment (More info?)

Dear all,

I have setup up a standard deployement procedure of our Windows 2000 prodessional system, by using the sysprep utility.
Based on that I have define on this image installation Local policy wich have been defined restricted to all users except the Administrator according to Microsoft procedure for doing so.

Which means that after deployement, our system local security is :

- Remove of Add/Remove hardware and software from control panel
- Do not allowed windows update
- Disable edition of registry database
- ....and more

Only Adminstrator user has no restriction.

Now it happen that one of my customer would like to be able to hand windows update itself. For this it is needed to edition just one parameter in Local froup policy.

The problem is that if the system is already at customer site m which could be far away, is there an easy solution to just enable the Windows update from initial policy settings.?

It would mean, can I send to the customer by mail the modified file ..\system32\GroupPolicy\Machine\Registry.pol
That will have that windows update enable.

Thanks for your advise and help

regards
