Win2000 Server Group Policy running on WinXP Pro

When using Windows 2000 Server, how can I make Group Policy effect a Windows XP Pro client like a Windows 2000 client?

"The power you seek has been with you all along. Just click your heels together three times and say..." Oh wait.. wrong power. The good news is that Windows XP clients will embrace all your policy settings set from Windows 2000 Server. Note, however, that when Windows XP's "Fast Boot" (sometimes called Logon Optimization) is enabled, certain Group Policy functions could take between two and three logons or reboots to appear.
