Is it possible to Write-Protect USB block storage devices on Win2k

I am familiar with how to write protect USB drives on Windows XP SP2,

(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\StorageDevicePolicies.

That registry setting works very well with group policy, but for our

workstations only. The same registry setting does nothing for a Windows

Server 2003 box. I need to prevent even accidental writes to removable

storage devices on one particular server for overarching security policy

reasons (rather than for practical purposes). Does anyone know how this can

be done without "upgrading" to Longhorn beta or using a third party product?
