Re: Security Desciptors
The GPO Security Client Side (SecCli) processing engine will take care of
any discrepencies between the GPO's, only appling the security and registry
settings that are used by the client machine. Creating your GPO's creation
is generally done via tools like the Group Policy Managment Console or
Security Configuration and Analysis Console, which are standard across the
windows platforms.

There were some caveats around templates edited in XP not running on 2000,
however there is now a hotfix for this.

Hope this helps,
