[Samba] Any possibility to apply policies on WinXP machines using samba 3.2.3 ?

http://www.pcc-services.com/articles/implement_sys_policies.html is pretty
good (linked from the samba policies page) I'm testing it right now!

All versions of samba prior to 4 (which is still in testing) implement 
an NT4 style domain. NT4 does not have support for active directory 
style group policies, but it does support older poledit policies.

Grab a copy of Poledit from MS, get some templates (either from admin 
packs from MS or from one of several websites around the place) and make 
an NTConfig.POL file, save it to your netlogon share and you are done.
