Hi Oscar,

Sorry, I wasn't clear enough. You won't see it when you fire up gpedit.msc
locally on Windows 2003 Server. Actually, what I would do (provided you are
in AD environment) is to create a new OU for Terminal Server users, then
create and apply a new policy to that OU which would contain the taskbar
lookdown feature.
