Basicaly it load the NTUSER.DAT (wich is the current_user branch you chose) into the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE.
You can do that the regedit.exe with "file-->load hive" then selecting a name for you loaded branch.....
Then you can impot registry tweaks as you want....
But because the change you want to do are in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\User you got to change in your registry file HKEY_CURRENT_USER to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\User

Did you tried it?

Havent tried it, i don't know if joining the domain would overwrite the value.....but thats a good idea.
But you can try it. That would preconfigure them.
Once your computer has joined the domain, you can tweak the Firewall with the GPOs
Hope this help!

You might want to try Registry Monitor from Sysinternals. This is a very nice freeware to try.
Consider also trying File Monitor.
I used also Araxis Merge (you can get a free trials) to track change between my registry file.....
Basically, export HKCU and HKLM, than make your change to your system. Then export again your HKLM and HKCU... than compare your file in Araxis Merge. Its very easy to see what change have been made
Hope this help!

I had some problem with one of my system. Dell Precision 370 wich use Broadcom 57x Gigabit Integrated NIC.
Just after the CIW, Windows setup tells that driver or somewhat is missing.
On broadcom site you have information about this. Yesterday, update the broadcom driver to newest version and they were not working with the RIS setup (in the i386). I dont think the problem is because RIS doesnt creates your PNF file.
You might want to try older driver and see broadcom site for more information. You have to edit them to get them working
Hope this help.
Since im not an english im not sure that i have understood all corectly. If no, i would like to get more precision on your question

Yes it can works. I use it actually
U have to use REG
So it should be
REG LOAD "HKLM\User" "c:\users\default user\ntuser.dat"
REG IMPORT "regtweaks.reg"
REG UNLOAD "HKLM\User"
Important....
you must replace in your reg file the part "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" by "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\User"
Hope this help!

Yes it is suposed to recreate to pnf file. But why do you need it? I far as i know, this does not created problem in my environment.
Does your server see the Ris server?

Use this in your reg tweak file
;Enable remote desktop
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server]
"fDenyTSConnections"=dword:00000000
Use this in your winnt.sif file
[TerminalServices]
AllowConnections=1
PermissionsSetting=0
For your exception
Add
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\DomainProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List] OR
<EDIT>[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\StandardProfile\GloballyOpenPorts\List]</EDIT>
"3389:TCP"="3389:TCP:*:Enabled:@xpsp2res.dll,-22009"
"139:TCP"="139:TCP:LocalSubNet:Disabled:@xpsp2res.dll,-22004"
"445:TCP"="445:TCP:LocalSubNet:Disabled:@xpsp2res.dll,-22005"
"137:UDP"="137:UDP:LocalSubNet:Disabled:@xpsp2res.dll,-22001"
"138:UDP"="138:UDP:LocalSubNet:Disabled:@xpsp2res.dll,-22002"
In my case it's domain profile (other could be standard profile)
You should set your tweak in your Windows Firewall control panel.
Then export your key and add it to your regtweaks file
Hope this help!

According to Winguides this tweaks works only on the Xp Start Menu.
Just to make sure it wasn't working, i tried it..... Doesn't work...
Seems like a couple tweaks doesnt work with "classic" start menu.
I'm having some problem to get the "small icons" in start menu too.
That was a nice try, thank you for helping me

Now that i'm working on RIS, i'd like to know how i get to automated.

Well, just tried on my setup.
I got the detailed view, but no Status bar......
Are you using this one?
0 -
This one of the most annoying default in Windows XP.
In explorer shell, no status bar!!!
Well i've searched and tried a lot of time on this one.
I know this setting is saved in HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\currentVersion\Explorer\Streams
And i know that i have to set my setting that i want, then export them in a reg then impot to other user. Detailed view is there......but no status bar. IS status bar somewhere else?
Anyone is using the same settings? (Detail with status bar)
Thank you!

I've finally managed to get my full answer....
In our business... the username will be use as Initials for Office.
What this code do is search the Active Directory for the current username. Then get the Full name (Will be use as Full name within Office) then convert the string to HEX.
So here the code, executed at the logon
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
' get UserName
strName = oShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%USERNAME%")
strContainer = "ou=MyOUInAD"
On Error Resume Next
' Constants for the NameTranslate object.
Const ADS_NAME_INITTYPE_DOMAIN = 1
Const ADS_NAME_TYPE_NT4 = 3
Const ADS_NAME_TYPE_1179 = 1
Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network")
' Determine DNS domain name from RootDSE object.
Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE")
strDNSDomain = objRootDSE.Get("defaultNamingContext")
' Use the NameTranslate object to find the NetBIOS domain name from the
' DNS domain name.
Set objTrans = CreateObject("NameTranslate")
objTrans.Init ADS_NAME_TYPE_NT4, strDNSDomain
objTrans.Set ADS_NAME_TYPE_1179, strDNSDomain
strNetBIOSDomain = objTrans.Get(ADS_NAME_TYPE_NT4)
' Remove trailing backslash.
strNetBIOSDomain = Left(strNetBIOSDomain, Len(strNetBIOSDomain) - 1)
' Use the NameTranslate object to convert the NT user name to the
' Distinguished Name required for the LDAP provider.
objTrans.Init ADS_NAME_INITTYPE_DOMAIN, strNetBIOSDomain
objTrans.Set ADS_NAME_TYPE_NT4, strNetBIOSDomain & "\" & strName
strUserDN = objTrans.Get(ADS_NAME_TYPE_1179)
' Bind to the user object in Active Directory with the LDAP provider.
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUserDN)
'Get Common name
strUsername= objUser.cn
'Convert Initials to HEX
For i = 1 to Len(strName)
strInitialsHex = strInitialsHex & "," & Hex(Asc(Mid(strName, i, 1))) & ",00"
Next
strInitialsHex = Right(strInitialsHex , Len(strInitialsHex ) -1)
strInitialsHex = strInitialsHex & ",00,00"
'Convert Username to HEX
For i = 1 to Len(strUsername)
strUsernameHex = strUsernameHex & "," & Hex(Asc(Mid(strUsername, i, 1))) & ",00"
Next
strUsernameHex = Right(strUsernameHex, Len(strUsernameHex) -1)
strUsernameHex = strUsernameHex & ",00,00"
' Create temporary registry file

Thank you all for helping me out on this one

HKCU and reg.exe
in Windows XP
Posted
Here is your modified file
so your command should be (if you dont changed the location for user's profile
REG LOAD "HKLM\User" "C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\NTUSER.DAT"
REG IMPORT "lock.reg"
REG UNLOAD "HKLM\User"
As you'll see in your reg file...i changed HKEY_CURRENT_USER to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\User
This will allow you to change settings for the default user.....
Lock.reg
