Newer System.adm ?

I'm trying to add an exception to the XP SP2 firewall. I understand that
the correct location in the registry for this is:

hklm\system\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\DomainProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List

However, my system.adm (3/24/2005) has the list at

hklm\Software\Policies\Microsoft\WindowsFirewall\DomainProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List

I've tested the first key by manually adding a exception and that worked,
but my GPO is based on the system.adm, and it seems to use the second key
(as revealed by GPMC).

So my question is - is there a newer system.adm? Or, am I overlooking
something completely. Surely I'm not the only person that is trying to use
a GPO to open a port exception in the XP SP2 firewall?

TIA.

Pat.
