I've switched from a Windows2000 server to Windows 2003 Server, but as the Windows 2000 server is appearing to be on its last legs, I can't use GPMC on my XP machine, as it tells me my 2000 server is not around, but I can access the server (AD and GPO, eg) from its own machine, and was wondering can I export GPO's to use on my 2003 machine? I am aware that the GPO's are assigned to the user with an ID, and the new user on the new server will a different ID, so it may be difficult, but I was wondering if there is any easy way, straight from the machine with 2000 on?
We're talking about a non-domain scenario, right? My understanding of this all is, that you want to export the _local_ Group Policies from the Windows 2000 machine to the Windows XP machine?
As these are local policies, you cannot use GPMC. GPMC is made for administering Group Policy for domains. I don't know of an _official_ way to export the hole bunch of policies from one machine to another - but I can tell you how you can (at least) copy the settings under "Administrative Templates" to the Windows XP machine.
Go copy the two files called "registry.pol" from
%windir%\system32\GroupPolicy\Machine\ and
%windir%\system32\GroupPolicy\User
to the respective location on the Windows XP machine.
cheers,
Florian
