    Need an Example Modifying Remote Registry

    Hi:

    I'm looking for an example of modifying the registry of a remote system.

    Thanks much!

      Charles,

      Any example in the documentation will do. The only thing you have to do
      differently is call the static OpenRemoteBaseK ey to get the hive on the
      remote system you want to work with, and proceed from there.

          I get, "Use the new keyword to create an object instance". And we I do use
          new I get
          "Microsoft.Win3 2.RegistryKey.O penRemoteBaseKe y(Microsoft.Win 32.RegistryHive ,
          string) is a mathod but is used like a type".

          This is what I'm trying to get to work:

          RegistryKey Tb2Key =
          RegistryKey.Ope nRemoteBaseKey( RegistryHive.Lo calMachine,
          textBox4.Text). OpenSubKey("Sof tware\\Netopia\ \Timbuktu Pro\\TimbuktuNa me");
          Tb2Key.SetValue ("StringValu e", textBox4.Text);

          RegistryKey RoKey =
          RegistryKey.Ope nRemoteBaseKey( RegistryHive.Lo calMachine,
          textBox4.Text). OpenSubKey("Sof tware\\Microsof t\\Windows
          NT\\CurrentVers ion\\Registered Owner");
          RoKey.SetValue( "StringValu e", textBox3.Text);

          RegistryKey CNameKey =
          RegistryKey.Ope nRemoteBaseKey( RegistryHive.Lo calMachine,
          textBox4.Text). OpenSubKey("Sof tware\\Microsof t\\Windows
          NT\\CurrentVers ionRegisteredOr ganization");
          CNameKey.SetVal ue("StringValue ", "NeuStar Inc");

          Tb2Key.Close();
          RoKey.Close();
          CNameKey.Close( );

              Re: Need an Example Modifying Remote Registry

              I made a change and I think I'm close. It's now telling me that I don't have
              permissions to the remote system. The remote system is a virtual machine in
              my domain and I do have permissions as I am running the program as an admin
              of the domain.

              RegistryKey CNameKey =
              RegistryKey.Ope nRemoteBaseKey( RegistryHive.Lo calMachine,
              textBox4.Text). OpenSubKey("Sof tware").OpenSub Key("Microsoft" ).OpenSubKey("W indows NT").OpenSubKey ("CurrentVersio n");

              CNameKey.SetVal ue("RegisteredO rganization", "Company Inc",
              RegistryValueKi nd.String);

              Thanks!
