Permissions on a registry key

There is a key in the registry that I need to set permissions on.
Is there a way I can set that in AD? Or do I have to go to each machine
manually and do it?

Hi

You could e.g. feed the command line utilities Regini.exe or SetACL.exe with
computer names in a loop (they support setting registry permissions remotely).


Regini.exe:

For WinXP, it is builtin (%windir%\system32\regini.exe), for Win2k, it is
available in the Win2k Resource Kit (buy ware) as well as in the Win2k3 RK
(free).

It is also an updated version of Regini.exe is in the Win2k3 Server Resource
Kit (for Win2k/WinXP as well), and for documentation, see rktools.chm in the
RK.

Windows Server 2003 Resource Kit Tools
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...69-57ff-4ae7-96ee-b18c4790cffd&DisplayLang=en

(The kit will install on WinXP or later, or you can unpack it with WinZip or
similar)


SetACL.exe:

SetACL.exe (freeware) at
http://setacl.sourceforge.net/

SetACL can set permissions on:

Local or remote directories
Local or remote files
Local or remote printers
Local or remote registry keys
Local or remote Win32 services
Local or remote network shares
