Hi Martin,

Thanks for your posting here.

Windows NT clients will not be affected by the Windows 2000 Group Policy.
When you logon the client using the account of new Windows 2000 domain, you
need to create a ntconfig.pol file for the users in \\server_name\netlogon
folder.

Please refer to the following document for the detailed information.

HOW TO: Create a System Policy Setting in Windows 2000
