Setting up RDP environment on remote client

Hello,

what's the best way to configure the dekstop environment ( like disabling start button, removing icons from desktop ...) for remote client connecting through RDP 6 to a windows 2003 server. I tryed to modify the policy in the policy editor, but this modifies all users and also the administrator account. Is there a domain and active directory needed for solving this problem? Cause I don't want to create a new domain.

Thanks for the help.
