Registry Keys in an inf file

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.security (More info?)

Does anyone have a tutorial on deciphering the registry key values in an inf
file?Examples of this would be:
"MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Secure",2,"D(A;CI;GR;;;BU)(A;CI;GR;;;PU)(A;CI;GA;;;BA)(A;CI;GA;;;SY)(A;CI;GA;;;CO)"
"machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\wmi\security",2,"DAR(A;CI;KA;;;BA)(A;CIIO;KA;;;CO)(A;CI;KA;;;SY)"
"machine\system\controlset001",0,"DAR(A;CI;KA;;;BA)(A;CIIO;KA;;;CO)(A;CI;KA;;;SY)(A;CI;KR;;;BU)"
"MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001",1,"D:AR"
Thank you.

Machine = HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

2 = registry value type: dword, etc.

most everything else in (parentheses) are the actual permissions, with the
user or group name or SID abbreviated.

I agree, it's probably best to view and edit these in the Security Templates
GUI by running MMC, add/remove snap-in.
