RegObj.dll and Windows 9x
Attached is a script that I have been using. I am refering
to a key that is common to both Win9x and NT or Win2k. The
functions were adapted from a script found on the
CWashington web site. I have added a couple of echo
commands for reporting errors.
I can remotely reach the Win9x computers with Regedit.exe
with no problems. I can also access the file system
without problems. I did read about deleting keys with
subkeys, but I am only reading values.
