I second this. Unless I'm much mistaken (after some
research into the subject a few months back) the
options you've outlined are indeed the ones open.

Unless (and I hope) Paul's about to correct us on
this... AD is a requirement for non-local group
policies in XP... We've gone with mandatory profiles
for exactly this reason. Please tell me there's
another way...
