Thanks for all of the help... It turns out it was a recent change, so we went to each user that got the template profile over the last week and loaded their HKCU hive and just changed the permissions to propagate from what was in the registry branch above. A little time consuming, but not terrible. Of course, we also changed the template so that this doesn't happen again... ;-) -Dave Melczer dmelczer@xxxxxxxx <mailto:dmelczer@xxxxxxxx> -----Original Message----- From: Braebaum, Neil [mailto:Neil.Braebaum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 10, 2003 5:07 AM To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] Re: SV: GPOs being applied? REGINI.EXE always used to allow you to alter DACLs in the registry. Otherwise you're pretty stuffed, it's rather complex to do this with something like vbscript / ADSI (you'd need the ADSI SDK and some of it's objects to script it via this method).

Actually, I think I've found the answer. We create a default template based on a single user...someone must have logged in as this user and had the policies key created with only them and admins having permissions to access the registry keys. Of course, when this is propagated to another user, all hell breaks loose because other users can't modify the keys when the GPO comes down... Anyone have a utility to modify registry key security? *********************************************** This e-mail and its attachments are confidential and are intended for the above named recipient only.
