Not sure if this will help you, I just don't know. But it's
worth a try I guess.
If you know how to write a registry file, one that ends in
.reg, then you might be able to type something like:
regedit file.reg
at the command line.
Normally when you type up a .reg file, and double-click
on it from Windows Explorer, something loads it into the
registry. I'm thinking along the lines that RegEdit is the
app that actually does it. RegEdt32.exe on an XP
machine starts up Regedit.exe. But I'm just not sure if
it can load a .reg file and that it's the program that does
the process, and if it can be started from the command
console. There is a list of commands that can be run from
the command console when you type HELP. It might be
that only the commands that are available when you type
HELP are there.
I have noticed some inconsistancies in it at times though.
I think you might have to do something like a NET LOGON
under an administrative account to get more things done.
Hope that helps.
