NIST publishes a "Guide to Securing Microsoft Windows XP Systems for IT 
Professionals" that you can find here:

http://csrc.nist.gov/itsec/guidance_WinXP.html

The documentation is specifically for XP, though, and not for Windows 
2003 - the NIST site may provide what you're looking for on other pages.

All,
I'm aware of various tools and peice-meal procedures regarding secure
build guidance for Windows XP/2003 Server/Desktop machines.  Can
anyone please point me in the direction of a complete checklist with
regard to securing the listed operating systems.   I'm really just
looking for a single document for someone to work from. A straight
forward checklist etc. inline with best practice.
Any help appreciated.
