| (About the author) |
| | | I'm writing a larger program to manage quite a bit of tasks on the backend of workstations for my company's entire domain (offices world wide). One of the sub functions that I need to be able to perform is to recurse, query, add/remove, and just to generally enumerate through each of our W2K/NT5 workstation's registry in the HKEY_USERS. Performing these tasks I've listed here are very easy when dealing with all of the other keys such as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE because all of the paths that you would need to work with would be static. The problem I came to was that this is not the case with HKEY_USERS due to the SID's. All SID's are different per user, per account, per workstation. How can I manage these? Count how many exist? Store them in strings for later management and recursion? And ABOVE all, do this "REMOTELY" to any workstation on the same given domain??? Welp, a couple of days of research and playing around with this while watching TV has brought me to a pretty cleancut solution using the latest MSDN functions and MSV C++. This code should be pretty straight forward. And once you have all of the SID's in the subKeyName array, you can then recurse and manage and/or... whatever as you would normally with strings. Pain in the bootox for a n00b like me to get to this point of "clarity", so I thought I'd share to hopefully save on the potential of anyone else's frustration. GL!! Feel free to email me with q's and I'll try to do my n00biest to answer.....
