Re: Registry Keys, Permissions and GPO



Whilst as Darren say's there is no native support for this, what you could
do is write a simple vbscript to create the Registry key that you want as
part of a machine startup or logon script.

Once the key is in place you can use registry security through GPO to apply
security to the registry key.

Unfortunately, ADMs don't support registry permissions. You might look at
the old regdmp and regini utilities that, if I remember correctly, are
part of the reskit. Regdmp can create regini formatted files that do
include perms. Then you can monkey with the regini file to modify perms
and then use a GP-based computer startup or user logon script to deliver
the regini script.

Is there anyway to save a Registry Key in such a manner that the Key and
its
Permissions, preferably the Advanced Permissions, can be sent out via
GPO?

I've been trying to make a Key with RegtoAdm but I haven't yet been able
to
get permissions into the Key.

Can .adm files even hold permissions? What does one look like with
permissions?

thanks.
