Thanks for all your help.
I'm doing studies on Windows 2003 Group Policy, and would like to know how to find out the RSOP for a server from Group Policies.
Let me clarify/conclude my understanding here:
1. All Windows 2003 Servers have Local GPO. But Local GPO for Domain Controllers applies to restore mode only.
2. The Local Security Settings shows the current settings, not the Local GPO.
But how can we get the actual Local GPO? "gpedit.msc" can do ? How about "secedit /export /cfg" ?
One more strange thing is that if the Local Security Setting show the current settings, why the RSOP of GPMC shows no settings applied but Local Secuity Setting does ?

Just a point of clarification. On domain controllers it appears
as if there is no local policy. In fact there is, but it only applies
to the restore mode.
