Katerina,
There are two methods that I know of. Using Policy Editor or pointing
machines to a predefine profile. We are are using the second method in the
learning center. However, using Policy Editor "appears" to offer more
configuration
control. There is a learning curve involved here.
Policy Editor is available on SERVER by default, but can be added to
workstation
from tools found on the workstation resource kit.
We have not seen the Norton tools you are refering to.
Stephen
