Greetings,
Many Bothans died to get the input settings to actually work. The only
thing that will work, as far as I can tell, is to get this stuff into the
registry -after- the first boot, and before the user login. I use Group
Policy from Server 2008 R2 (aka, RSAT). Don't listen to fearmongers, there'=
s
absolutely no reason to worry about using newer versions of the
administrative tools on older versions of Active Directory; the tools are
backwards-compatible.
Here's a link to a picture so you can see what I mean: Using Group
Policy to set the Keyboard
