Set registry key value by policy

Hi,
running a domain using Win2003 SP2, is there a way to set the value of a
registry key on all domain clients (WinXP machines) using a group policy
object or anything like that?
Please note that I'm talking about the *value* of a key, not its
security properties (which can easily be found in the GPO tree).

Thanks.

ZeroUno,
you could create an ADM template which you then can add to any group
policy object. With ADM templates, registry values can be set, so this
might be the thing you are looking for. Microsoft describes ADM
templates here:

I hope this helps.
