the group policy management console, it says gpedit.msc file does not exist.I
checked the system 32 folder and it does not have it either.Can anyone
please advise me as to what i need to do in this case.

It does not exist in that release
If you are accomplished at reading spreadsheets, and reg editing, yo
can download the entire Gpedit, as a spreadsheet, and alter anything yo
wish. See here

GPEdit.msc only lives in installations of Vista XP Pro <---> Vista
Ultimate, Business, or Enterprise.

If you want it, you will HAVE to install one of the above editions of
Windows.

How can so many otherwise very intelligent people screw up
something so simple so badly? If you stick a computer
keyboard in front of most people, they'll suddenly drop
30 points off their IQs. Much like placing a "Pork Barrel"
bill in front of a politician: He'll forget all about
"cooperation" the minute he counts the zeroes before the
decimal point.
