script registry permissions in XP 2

[brian32]

What is the command for modifying registry permission in XP?

For example if I wanted to give everyone full control to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MyProgram

What is the command for this?

Some Microsoft articles mention regini.exe, but they are related to only Windows NT4. Thanks.

brian32,

Try using regedit. Expand the tree until you get to the node you want, right click > permissions.

Thanks for the reply Wishdiak, but I need this in command line form so I can push it out to multiple computers.

I have successfully used regini to push out registry rights changes to multiple XP computers.

REGINI -m \\computer name C:\temp\reg.ini

Where reg.ini is a file with this format:

\registry\machine\software\alcoda\registration [1 5 7 17]

where the 1 5 7 17 switches give Users full control over the key.

Does that help?

 

[brian32]

Yes. Thanks Dillinger99.
