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

[hamacker]

Hummm, it's really good.
My interesting in system policies for entire domains resides in the
fect that I need to block usb mass-storages in this winxp stations.
I able to lock USB using local GPO and .adm files (get from microsoft
technet), but some weeks after, I dont know how, my users can disable
that without admin privileges.

So, I looking for a solution that really block USB mass-storage
without use BIOS. I think that if I apply my GPO for domain and not by
local station will be fine. I hope so.
