the only way to do it via a GPO is to have a GPO that runs a script at login or startup time.<br />
<br />

<br />
you add startup scripts in \\computer configuration\windows settings\scripts\<br />

I have 8 WinXPs in a OU in a Win2K domain. &nbsp;All PCs login with the same username (www2). &nbsp;I've created registry entry to disable the NumLock key. &nbsp;Here's how I edited the registry:<br />
<br />
In HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControl<wbr />Set\Contro<wbr />l\Keyboard<wbr /> Layout<br />
I added a key called Scancode Map (REG_BINARY) and added the following value:<br />
<br />
00 00 00 00<br />
00 00 00 00<br />
02 00 00 00<br />
00 00 45 00<br />
00 00 00 00<br />
<br />
&nbsp; What's the best way to apply this registry entry to the PCs?<br />
<br />
1. &nbsp;Go to each PC an enter it manually; or,<br />
<br />
2. &nbsp;Apply it via a GPO to the OU; or,<br />
<br />
3. &nbsp;Apply it via a login script.<br />
<br />
If the answer is #2 or #3, what are the basic steps to do it that way?<br />
<br />
Thanks!<br />

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
