Thanks for the heads-up. I've been looking at the reg.exe utility and it looks promising. However, I don't see how I can implement the registry changes to all machines. There is no parameter to set either computer name nor domain name.

I have this issue where my boss wants me to implement a legal notice that will appear each time users logon. Now here is my issue: I already know where the registry keys are that I need to change, however, how do I deploy this change transparently-without the users intervention? I had hoped to used KIX, but I know that the users do not have the appropriate permissions to make and apply changes to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Any ideas?
