4 New ADMX Templates for Vista

Michael over at 4sysops dissects the ADMX template download update from Microsoft and finds four new templates not found natively in Windows Vista:

adfs.admx: Prevents a Federation Service in Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) from being installed or run.

pswdsync.admx: This policy setting allows you to manage the extensive logging feature for the Password Sync component.

servermanager.admx: This policy setting allows you to turn off the automatic display of Server Manager at logon.

snis.admx: This policy setting allows you to manage the extensive logging feature for the Server for Network Information Service (SNIS) servers.

Each of these, though ostensibly for Vista...

...are part of Vista's combination with Server 2008. So, you'll likely only be using these once you upgrade your server infrastructure to Server 2008 as well.

If these new templates are interesting to you, you can download them from the Microsoft web site here.
