Hello Johnny,

Thank you for your reply. I am glad to know that the problem has been
resolved.

We can adjust registry permissions by using GPO in AD-based domains.
However, in Windows NT domain, we can use a tool called subinacl.exe with
a command like the following:

subinacl /subkeyreg
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\SecurePipeServers\winreg
  /grant="LOCAL SERVICE"=r

You can download the SubInACL tool from the following web site:

SubInACL
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=e8ba3e56-d8fe-4a91-
93cf-ed6985e3927b&displaylang=en

For detailed information regarding the usage of this tool, please refer to
the Windows 2000 Resource Kit Tools document or run the following command:

SubInAcl /help /full

Thanks!

|Thank you very much for your reply. That appears to have
|worked for me. I added the Local Server to the
|permission list and the migration of that XP machine went
|fine.
|
|Now that I have set the permissions on this reg key, can
|I export it to a reg file and then import it through a
|logon script to other PCs? If so, will this maintain the
|Local Service permission? If not, is there a way to set
|the correct permission on all PCs without having to
|manually visit each one?
|
|Thanks
