    yes, for some reason NETWORK SERVICE and LOCAL SERVICE is missing from many
    of the policies that it appears it should have when i compair it to a
    working win2003 dc.
    now this worries me as i don't know how many policies are missing their
    settings and may affect other services.
    i can't reboot yet, but i will update when i get a chance to reboot.
