Default UAC in Vista Home Premium (hmm... no secpol.msc)

I really appreciate all the discussion here, especially some really
efficient postings by Shawn. But can someone please answer my concern
here ?

I am a Vista x64 home premium user. It is also true that I can disable
all my UAC annoyances very easily as described here in the forum
several
times. But it is also true that as of now, I cannot access secpol.msc
and can't monitor my local security policy :cry:. This is a part of
some
weird microsoft differentiation. Why is that so ?

Let's get specific :geek:. For example - I want to actually see how
the domain in my policy is acting. Let's say I wanna change the "UAC:
Behavior of elevation prompt for standard users" policy.

How would I do that without secpol.msc ? Is there a tweak which allows
me to access the "local security policy" without actually messing up
with the registry ?

Really appreciate your reply.


You've got Vista 64 Home Premium joined to a domain?
