I have even bugged MS PMs about this a couple of times but so far no joy.

I have never come across a workaround. From: David Lum [mailto:david....@nwea.org] Sent: Friday, August 20, 2010 8:40 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: GPO for service not listed I want to create a GPO to control a service that isn't listed in the System Services portion of Security Settings (because I'm not running GPMC from the machine that has the service), is there a way to add a service or does GPMC have to be run from a system with the desired service? Specifically, I want to create a GPO for the cluster service.
