Can't you just add the Group Policy Object Editor through MMC and scope it
to the local machine?

Maybe I am missing something?

Maybe I am doing this wrong, but I start MMC, Add-In Group Policy Object
Editor, specify Local Machine, and Add. When I go to view the policies,
they are NOT the local policies, but are the domain policies.

Is there an application that will show the current values stored in
*local* security policy on a Windows 2003 member server. I know I can
use rsop.msc to view *group* policy, but I don't want group policy of the
domain as applied to the member server. I want to see what are the
native security settings that would be in effect on the member server if
it were not in the domain at all.

Windows 2000 secpol.msc used to show you both the local and effective
settings. It looks like Microsoft removed that from Windows 2003. Is
there any way to recover this local view short of removing the computer
fromthe domain and rebooting?!
