Local Policy?

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

where is local policy settings in xp home? I don't have administrative tools
under start > all programs. And if I use mmc snapin there is no group pol to
add in. When using run-as for example, i must use a password for an admin
user or otherwise configure these settings. So where is that?

secpol.msc = Local Security Settings is only available with XP Pro.
gpedit.msc = Group Policy is only available with XP Pro.
adsiedit.msc = ADSI Edit (Active Directory Services Interface) is only
available with XP Pro.
