Re: Reg Editing



Hey KM!

Well, a fair amount. We are looking on restricting a whole bunch of items.
Yeah, I figured it might be something like that. The document I have said you
would be able to do it under Local Machine, but clearly the path is different
somehow. I have the list of items we trying to adjust below. This document is
used by libraries to lockdown their PCs. We want to use it for our Embedded
Toasters. Hence trying to find the place as to effect the whole toaster, not
just a peculiar user. Thanks!
