RE: [windows2000] Reg comandSeems like the path really is ok, and that the
problem is within the parameters:
C:\Program Files\tools>reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLo
ckdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
To many command-line parameters.
But I did check all the switches etc and they seem ok. Isn't this the way to
do this? <confused>
Can you guys reproduce this? I'd like to know if it's just my system or not.
TIA.

Too many ??, I only use them for the Registry Key path string. I use Reg 2.0
from Windows 2000.
Try to manually execute the reg add command from the command prompt window.
CD to the folder reg is in and type in
reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v
bEFIPrintMe /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f
This may uncover the real problem.
The below strings work! 8-))
@echo off
setlocal
set PATHTOFILES=%temp%\Project_scripts\Config
REM *** NoNameReleaseOnDemand Enable ********
%PATHTOFILES%\reg add
"HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\NetBT\Parameters" /v
NoNameReleaseOnDemand /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f

I have the below set-statement in the script:
set PATHTOFILES=c:\program files\tools\
Then comes
%PATHTOFILES%reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t REG_DWORD /f
Which produces the below in a CLI-window:
c:\program files\tools\reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t REG_DWORD /f
'c:\program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
If I instead use
"%PATHTOFILES%reg.exe" add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t REG_DWORD /f
I get
"c:\program files\tools\reg.exe" add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adob
e\Acrobat Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t
REG_DWORD
/f
To many command-line parameters.
IMHO "" are necessary every time you have a path with spaces in it, no
matter if you have a set-statement or not. "c:\program files" includes a
space in all US English versions of WinXP Pro I know of.

Sorin,
The path to reg add..
"%programfiles%\tools\reg" add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t REG_DWORD /f
The path to reg.exe should not require quotes. I don?t use them and it
works.
Try: %programfiles%\tools\reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

The quotes on the reg.exe-part or the hklm-part?
For the reg.exe-part I must use qoutes as there are spaces in the path. The
quotes on the hklm-part looks like yours.

Sorin,
Sorry for any confusion, the placement of the quotes. See the string I use
below, shows the placement that works for me.

How do you mean incorrect? They look the same to me. Or do you mean they're
in an incorrect place?

Reg command,
It looks like the quotes are incorrect. The below batch strings are what I
have been using successfully.
Check at the command prompt: reg /? Or reg add /? For help.
I hope this helps..
Good luck

Subject: [windows2000] Reg comand
Hi all,
I'm trying to deploy the Acrobat v7.0.5 update to our domain using a script
and a GPO. After the deployment itself, I want to add certain registry keys
to the computers that have had this update installed. The key below is an
example (line may be wrapped):
"%programfiles%\tools\reg" add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Adobe\Acrobat
Reader\7.0\FeatureLockdown" /v bEFIPrintMe /d 0x00000000 /t REG_DWORD /f
Problem is that I get an error "To many command-line parameters.".
How can it be too long??
The "Tools"-folder on the local computer contains the reg.exe, but I get the
same error. I also ried running the reg.exe command from the dfs-share and
get the same error there.
Am I hitting a hard-coded limit on the path-lenght or something here? If so,
could you suggest any other way to do this?
TIA.
BW,
Sorin
