My windows 2003 domain is set to have accounts lockout
after so many attempts, to require at least 8 passwords
etc. On Windows 2000 machines if I remove a machine from
the domain it always releases these policies back to the
local GPO. On my XP Box with SP1 if I remove the PC from
the domain, these policies remain in force and are locked
on the local station. Is there a way to remove these
locked policies not that the box is part of a workgroup
again? Thanks Keven
