so you think installing the admin tools and GPMC on a PC may allow me to see
the DDP? interesting idea.
The GPO I edited the admin name in is the one that says local GPO. should
the local GPO be in C:\WINDOWS\system32\GroupPolicy? the data in this folder
does not appear to match what GPMC says the local GPO has in it.
i still don't get what has caused this mix up.

policy from another machine, then I would recommend using that to make the
edits rather than doing it on the DC.
As far as the administrator rename, what GPO did you deploy that in? Maybe
you deployed it against the local GPO when you thought it was the DDP?

thanks for the suggestion, it opened the same local computer policy again
though. On my othe domain it does open the default domain policy, so i
dont
get what the issue is here.
I browsed through the filesystem and found this
[Unicode]
Unicode=yes
[System Access]
MinimumPasswordAge = 1
MaximumPasswordAge = 42
MinimumPasswordLength = 7
PasswordComplexity = 0
PasswordHistorySize = 24
LockoutBadCount = 0
RequireLogonToChangePassword = 0
ForceLogoffWhenHourExpire = 0
ClearTextPassword = 0
[Kerberos Policy]
MaxTicketAge = 10
MaxRenewAge = 7
MaxServiceAge = 600
MaxClockSkew = 5
TicketValidateClient = 1

under
\\domain\sysvol\domain.com\Policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\MACHINE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\SecEdit\GptTmpl.inf. it has not been edited since 2/17/06 and appears
to
be what i am looking for. Can i edit this file to overcome my immediate
issues like LockoutBadCount = 0?
Another weird thing with this is that i was able to rename the local admin
name, but the contents above to don't show it, again on my other damain
the
inf file shows NewAdministratorName = "ECantona".
