Marc, Forewarned is ... Well, you get the drift. It would be irresonsible of me to suggest adding your own entries to an .ADM without first mentioning the issue. So with that disclaimer out of the way....
I'd suggest that your solution would likely be the best. Take a snapshot of what it looks like in the unconfigured state, then configure and look for the changes. For me, that works most of the time. Good luck!

However, you can write your own that can be imported into your GP console and managed almost as if it was one of the supplied policies. But - there is a 'gotcha' - the GP entries will not be automatically removable. IOW, they will tattoo the registry, much like NT policies applied to clients. These policy entries are applied directly to the specific registry entry and not to the /policies subkey section reserved for GP and flushed when the user logs off or the machine is shut down. As long as you're aware of these limitations, you should be able to do anything as long as you can identify the reg key and the associated necessary values.

I can't seem to find any ADM file for this. Is there somebody who can help me on this one?
