1. What you will need to do is make the WinXP workstations to log on to your domain.
2.You might want to create an account for them. 3.After doing that you will have to apply the security policies to a workstation level instead of the user level.
4.You might want to check that Win2k Server is running in mixed mode but Native mode should work fine with XP because they have the same NT Kernel technology.
