Florian,
First, thanks for come back to me so quick...
Sorry, I must have explained wrong (always the way, my brains knows what it
is saying, my fingers don't) I had a windows 2000 server, and I've gone up
to a windows 2003 server, but I can't export the GPO's on the 2000 machine,
as the GPMC doesn't work on that machine, but I would like the ability to
put the GPO's I had on that domain onto my new 2003 machine, with ease. The
GPO's are applied (or were, when it was running) as the user logs on..
Hope that makes a bit more sense..
Regards
Paul.

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
