If you want to allow remote hosts the same access to the local system’s registry, you must first enable the proper access control and password settings.
The host must have user-level access control for the Microsoft Remote Registry service to function properly and allow remote users to open and edit the local registry.
To alter the access control level for the host:
1 Select the Access Control tab from the Network control panel.
2 Select the User-level access control option and type the name of your Windows NT/2000 domain in the Domain field.
3 Click OK.
4 Open the Password control panel and select the Remote Administration tab.
The Passwords Properties dialog box appears.
5 Select the Enable remote administration of this server check box.
The Management Stations window will contain a list of all users or groups who are authorized to edit the local system registry.
To add a user or group, click Add.
A selection dialog box will appear which will allow you to add users or groups to the Management Stations list from the domain specified within the Access Control Level tab of the Network control panel.
To remove a user, select the user from the Management Station’s list and click Remove.
See the Windows online help for more information on setting remote administration.
Once you set both the access control level and appropriate administrator authorizations, the remote users can open and edit the local registry.
