    create MMC
    add snapins:
    Security Configuration and Analysis
    and
    Security Templates.
    Take one to the (most appropriate) Security templates and copy it (ie, right
    click it and Save As... with your own name.
    Go into this new template and set all the options the way you want them
    (eventually on multiple machines) and save the template back to disk.
    Now click on Security Configuration and Analysis and follow the instructions
    on the right hand side to create a new Database with your required settings
    inthere.
    Then look up the secedit command parameters, notably to see the "secedit
    /configure" .
    just enter secedit on the command line and follow the helpinfo from there.
    This should get you where you want to go.
    hope it wasn't too confusing and helps you further.
