Make sure you are applying these settings at the proper level. Domain
Controller Security Policy is for domain controllers only and by default
Domain Security Policy would apply to all other domain computers, though it
can also be defined via a GPO at the Organizational Unit Level and settings
defined at that level would override like defined settings at the domain
level. Keep in mind that Windows 2003 has numerous additional settings that
Windows 2000 does not have, so if you enable those settings via the Windows
2003 domain controller, they will not apply to the Windows 2000 computers.
Try configuring some common security options for both operating systems to
see if they apply. Also in Windows 2000 the "effective" setting in Local
Security Policy may be different that the local settings when an overriding
policy has been applied. That would show that domain/OU policy was in
effect. The support tool gpresult can help in troubleshooting by showing
what computer configuration policies are applying to a computer and unless
you reboot or use secedit to refresh the Group Policy on the Windows 2000
computers it can take up to a couple of hours for the new policy to
ply. --- Steve
