turn off simple file sharing

Is there a centralized way to turn off simple file sharing in all
workstations in a domain? I've tried to look for it in group policy, but
couldn't find one that applies. We use W2K3 and all clients use WinXP Pro.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

When machines are joined to a domain, simple file sharing is normally
disabled by default (I don't think that you can turn it on even if you want
to). Note that this applies to WinXP Pro. WinXP home can't join a domain.
