Hi
We have an NT server with windows 2000 client, I have created a security group policy and saved it as NT policy.pol in netlogin folder. I have applied it to the domain user group and changed it to hide the network neightbour icon. But when I logon windows 2000 as a roaming user, which is a domain user, the icon is still there.
Does that mean I'm doing something wrong or it doesn't work with windows 2000 client. I would also like to stop roaming printer setup also if possible, so the local printer is always installed no matter who login.

I thought you used ntconfig.pol for nt machines and config.pol with system policy editor to apply policy's with a nt4 server. I could be wrong, but I never heard on ntpolicy.pol.?
I know that if you do set your nt4 server up with a ntconfig.pol in the netlogon folder and configure it using poledit for the groups / users / computers that logon to the server you can do things like remove network neighborhood from desktop.
