I have all 2000 clients and the users belong to the users group which restricts the registry. I want to be able to run a registry hack in a script as the administrator of the local PC. This way the hack will stick and yet the user cannot install and/or change the registry.

Not sure if this is asking to much but figured I could find the answer here if it is possible.

Thanks ~ Trox [Cool]

So what exactly is the problem?

Do you want ot run the script as part of a users login script? Or do you want to remotely run a script? Please be more precise in your question.

You might want to search the KiXtart BBS for 'SU.EXE' and 'Task Scheduler'.

I'm running the script as part of the users logon script.

I'll take a look at the BBS to see if it helps.

Your best choices would be to execute a script using an account that has the appropriate access on the remote computers and perform the change across the network.

Or use Group Policy to have the computer execute a startup script to make the required change. This is a path that I have tested and will be persuing when we have a majority of W2K computers.

How many boxes do you need to hammer ... you can sneaker net out permissions on all the Regedit (and 32) or play with this sort of neet tool
NTTools
Yes, not exactly Kix-related ... but, to hammer too often, via logon, would not be too healthy ... again depends on how many you have ...

If you gave us some insight into what the reg hack was about we may be able to better advise. As already mentioned, there are ways to do it using SU but there are security concerns. Task Scheduler was also mentioned but it is not as serial as a logon script.

It is also possible to edit the reg remotely with an admin script. That too, is not as serial unless you use some external trigger.
