-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-6148 2011-04-28 18:56:40 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : hivex Product : Fedora 15 Version : 1.2.5 Release : 2.fc15 URL : http://libguestfs.org/ Summary : Read and write Windows Registry binary hive files Description : Hive files are the undocumented binary blobs that Windows uses to store the Windows Registry on disk. Hivex is a library that can read and write to these files. 'hivexsh' is a shell you can use to interactively navigate a hive binary file. 'hivexregedit' lets you export and merge to the textual regedit format. 'hivexml' can be used to convert a hive file to a more useful XML format. In order to get access to the hive files themselves, you can copy them from a Windows machine. They are usually found in %systemroot%\system32\config. For virtual machines we recommend using libguestfs or guestfish to copy out these files. libguestfs also provides a useful high-level tool called 'virt-win-reg' (based on hivex technology) which can be used to query specific registry keys in an existing Windows VM. For OCaml bindings, see 'ocaml-hivex-devel'. For Perl bindings, see 'perl-hivex'. For Python bindings, see 'python-hivex'. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix Python bindings on 32 bit architectures (thanks Hilko Bengen). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program. Use su -c 'yum update hivex' at the command line. For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum", available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.
