Finding the Local Computer Policy in the Registry!

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.work_remotely (More info?)

I am managing a computer network with about 60 machines running XP Pro. I am currently using a login.bat file from our server. I am looking to edit each machine's Local Policy using the registry. I need to edit the Policy (Local Computer Policy\\Computer Configuration\\Administrative Templates\\System\\Remote Assistance) and change the Offer Remote Assistance Properties to Enabled and add users to that list. Does anyone know where I might find the entries in the registry? I think I might be able to figure out how to edit it using my batch file as I already am editing it to Turn Remote Desktop On and Remote Assistance On but I just need to know where this is at in the registry! Thanks in Advance for any given!

That solution doesn't work when using a Windows 2000 Server. It doesn't know what Remote Desktop is! I would like registry entries! Thanks!

I see you found the Windows Registry Guide site...

http://www.winguides.com/registry/

....from your post in the user forums...

http://www.winguides.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=brdQuestions&Number=119919

Hopefully you can get an answer there or from someone more knowledgeable than I am on this issue...

Good luck...

Those work, ie. if I enable both Offer and Solicited gp's on my XP Pro SP2 box the resulting
registry entries are created. Likewise if I disable both the Offer and Solicited gp's the registry
entries are deleted...
