System Policy Query

We have Windows 2000, NT4 & 98 workstation in an NT4 Server environment with a PC Netlink backbone. All domain controllers run on Solaris boxes. I have setup system policy Editor locally on my Windows 2000 workstation. I have configured it using the default .adm templates (winnt, common & inetset). I then saved the NTconfig.pol file to the PDC. I created a User and set it to - Hide all icons on the desktop.

When I log on to a Windows 2000 workstation with the user account, nothing happens. But when I log on with a Windows NT4 workstation the policy applies.

Is there an issue between Windows 2000 Professional and System Policy Editor?
I tried to import system.adm which comes as default with Windows 2000 but the system policy editor shuts down and when I re-open it it hadsn't added.
Do I need to create .adm files which are specific to Windows 2000?

Please help me....
