I need to modify the registry of allot of computers here at work, but instead of manually modifying the registy on each one I would rather run a script. Could someone please give me a sample script on how to add an entry into the registy, and I believe I can go from there. I either want to create a bat file or something in Java. Here is what I want to do. Add a REG_DWORD in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters Your help is greatly appreciated.

Adding/modifying by script is fairly easy (removal is slightly more difficult). You could run an .inf file, but a .reg file would be easier. Just put something like this in it: REGEDIT4 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters] "NewParamName"=dword:00000001 Although invoking the resulting .reg file from the command line should do the trick (default action is to "merge" the contents into registry), you can also process it directly (or as command in .bat file). Just run: regedit.exe MyRegFile.reg Assuming no permission restrictions, should work fine. Cheers

regedit.exe /s MyRegFile.reg The /s supresses the confirmation dialog
