The changes will be in effect for the entire domain.
When you edit a GPO from a machine that has higher rev
adm templates, these are automatically uploaded to the
domain conrollers, whence you can edit the settings.
The updated adms are not actually needed on the machines
to which policy is applied, only wherefrom one edits the
policy settings.
Just get GPMC and use it on an up-to-date XP or W2k3
if you have one. Then, after that keep an awareness of the
"applies to" info for each policy you use so that you do not
get confused such as by thinking that at XP and later policy
will be effective on a W2k.
