Dave,
I don't find it strange that some script ain't working through a rdp
session....
I've seen similair effects when testing and managing a site (I logon =
with
rdp while users log on with ica).
Seems like some parts of the registry are in use or so when connecting =
via
rdp, you actually are using the same keys as the local console logged on
adminstrator. (if you log on as admin via rdp)
I've used similair kix scripts with large printer correction reg files =
that
ran fine with ica session, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Grx
Rob

Unfortunately, yes there are a lot in there...about 10 printed pages
worth...plus, there are several other registry files getting imported, =
all
relatively large. We can definitely do the conversion, but were hoping =
to
avoid the need...
More importantly, I'm worried that if this isn't working, then there are
other things that might be broken. As I said, all of this works on =
console,
just not through RDP...never seen this one before...
Thanks for the suggestion...it looks like I'll start converting the reg
scripts later today...

Just out of interest, is there a load of registry keys / values in that =
reg
file?
'cos I'm sorta wondering if it wouldn't be more optimal to use the Kix
native functions to update the registry - given that you are using a Kix
script in the first place.
