Oh, aren't we just a bit holier than thou??  NO $H!T Sherlock!  Any admin 
worth his/her salt knows how to "play" with the registry, and has no 
problem with it.  And I agree with almost every statement you make.  But 
why do something when you don't have to?  To make my car run better, I 
*could* tear down the engine every 5,000 miles, but I prefer to just change 
the oil...

(Now let's just smile, shack e-hands, and move on, shall we??)  :-) :^) :-D

Justin - AUTOLOG is on the NT4 Server Resource Kit CD; I don't think you 
ever mentioned what OS you are actually working on?  I know it works on any 
NT4/2000 machine though.  And since I didn't HACK THE REGISTRY (<G>) when I 
used it, I don't know how it stores the info.  I can send it to you 
privately if you'd like; a search on MS-KB for AUTOLOG will probably tell 
you as much as I can, too.
