ZENworks Application Restrictions
Introduction
This is a small tutorial on how to restrict ZENworks applications to show up everywhere. This is not a complete list, it's just some settings that I use, tried and tested.
Only show up on Windows XP
Below settings make sure your application only shows up on a Windows XP box:
The Microsoft Windows version numbering is set as follows:
The Microsoft Windows version numbering is set as follows:x.x.x.x (Major.Minor.Revision.Build)
Windows 2000 has 5.0.x.x
Windows XP has 5.1.x.x
Windows 2003 has 5.2.x.x
The ZENworks Operating System variable only checks the parts that are given. The four sections are all treated separately.

See the Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Windows ) page to see more operating system versions.
Don't show up if you don't exist
