Registry change using Gpo
Hi,
We are using Windows Server 2003 domain contollers. Our clinet machines are running in Windows XP. I need to modify the following registy key on all our clinet machines using group policy.
Currently the registy setting is having the value 1 and I need to change it to 0 using gpo.
"Hkey_Local_Machine\System
The above reg value should be 0.
Can you please provide me any .adm template or the corresponding settings in the GPMC console for this.
Thanks in advance.

You need to download GPMC as separate installation fole (it's not included within 2003) from

Hello,
I had already installed GPMC. Can you please specify the path for the registy settings where I need to configure in the Group policy Editor?

OK, you need to run GPMC and create new GPO or select the existing one. Now, edit it, and select "Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates". Click on it right mouse button and choose "Add/Remove Templates" point to the location where ADM file is saved. Now, go to menu "View -> Filtering" and unselect both checkboxes at the bottom.
Now, you should be able to see new node "NTFS Management". Configure there "8dot3 Name Creation" and choose "Enabled"
Link GPO to appropriate OU with computers and reboot it to take it effect
