Fred_Leonard Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I hope this is an OK place to post this question. (I searched the forums for "registry" first and didn't find where to post it.)I have made a valid boot CD with nLite before, and now I want an updated one with IE7 and WMP11.(Direct X 9 still fails though)I have made an untested ISO with no errors after removing DX9, but I want to add some registry keys before burning.Mainly the one to fix a MS bug (feature) that won't allow you to log into a PC remotely (admin shares, etc) even if you supply the correct administrator password.This was a nasty one to find, but now that I have the key, I want it built into the CD.I see in nLite, there is an option built in to fix the other MS bug/feature that blocks passwords in URLs.(Yes these are intentional MS bugs! Just because MS can't control viruses doesn't mean they need to amputate everything to the point of the OS not working. These mentioned features work just fin in UNIX).The key I want to add is;[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa]"forceguest"=dword:00000000I would like this added in future versions of nLite as the URL fix was, but for now, how can I get it in manually?Thanks!

Madhits45 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Add the reg file as part of your runonce. or do it during the cmdlines part of the install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred_Leonard Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 Thanks, but I was really hoping to avoid a reg file and run once.I like how clean nLite is as far as setting tweaks during the build process.If there is some way to add my own, that would be ideal, and hopefully they can build this into a future version since it's such a bad problem.Meanwhile, if there's a way to edit an INI file, or something a little cleaner, I would like to do so.Is this even possible?Thanks againFred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madhits45 Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 it would be cool if nuhi added a feature to add your own reg entries into nlite. The one problem with that is i use about 2-3 reg files which get added at different times during the install. t-12, at first then later during runonce.

In there just add the lineREG ADD HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa /v forceguest /t dword /d 00000000Your only other option is to check nlite.inf (in i386 folder) and see where the registry tweaks are applied, and add it there, or add it into one of the registry inf's on the cd, like hivesft.inf, hivedef.inf, etc. Edited December 21, 2006 by Speeddymon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
