That looks pretty damn cool. I bet it's expensive as hell, though.

What I was trying to say is that if I could lock down Windows machines with a central policy fed from a Linux machine, that would be great.

I have found that a proper implementation of Group Policy and locking down end-user machines fairly tight has saved me countless hours of troubleshooting and repairing Windows client PC's. Computers that I have

built and locked down are still running strong, five years after I deployed them. With zero maintenance.

I love active directory and group policy.

Locking down a Linux machine is a bit tougher. I found a nice tool called "Kiosk Tool" for KDE, but it doesn't have any sort of central mechanisim for managing clients.
