| If you want more power than what's available inside the box, you can create your own ADM templates. Here, we have several examples of additional ADM templates that you can leverage. Do you have an ADM template that you created, that you think we should feature here? Then email Jeremy to let him know! Let's share the love! However, beofore you attempt to use these ADM templates, it's probably a good idea to read Chapter 5 of the new book (Group Policy, Profiles and intelliMirror for Windows 2003, Windows XP and Windows 2000) or Chapter 2 of the previous book (Windows 2000: Group Policy, Profiles and IntelliMirror) to get the full gist of how these are used. Remember, there's a difference between proper blue-dot ""policy settings" and red-dot "preferences." ADM Template: Tourism.adm -- Author Bill Avellan Are you sick of that annoying pop up message, "Would you like to take a Tour?" when you or your users first log on to Windows XP? You can try using this ADM template which should squelch the message. ADM Template: Passport.adm -- Author Bill AvellanAre you sick of that annoying pop up message, "Would you like to enter in your Microsoft Passport?" when you or your users first log on to Windows XP? You can try using this ADM template which should squelch the message. ADM Template: Admintools.adm -- Author Bill AvellanWhen you use a Windows 2000 or Windows XP machine, you might notice that the Administrative tools are hidden on the Start Menu by default. You can use this ADM template to enable the Administrative Tools to appear off the Start menu. ADM Template: IEAllowKerberos.adm -- Author Benny Hauk When you upgrade IE to 6.0 on a Windows 2000 client, There's a new checkbox in Tools->Internet Options->Advanced->Security called Enable Windows Integrated Authentication that's unchecked by default. So those browsers can't use Kerberos to authenticate to a web server, which in turn means you can't use delegation to have that user's credentials passed all the way to the backend database (SQL Server). We are moving towards having all database authentication done using Windows Authentication which means making web servers do Windows delegation is key. By using this ADM Template I made, we enabled hundreds of web browsers at our company to use Kerberos, thus solving another technical hurdle along the path to true pass-through integrated windows authentication. For updates contact bgh0055 (at) yahoo.com. ADM Template: CompXCust.adm -- Author Nate Risser There's no easy way to disable Windows Media Player 8 updates. Until now. Use this ADM template to stop it from updating if you want. The content from this ADM template was found in this article from Microsoft. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;278960.
