Sorry here is the code I have written:
use Win32::TieRegistry 0.20 (Delimiter=>"#", ArrayValues=>0);
$pound = $Registry->Delimiter("/");
$machinename =
$Registry->{"LMachine/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Control/ComputerName/ComputerName//ComputerName"};
print "$machinename\n";
If I am logged in as a user with administrative rights, it prints the
computername if not it just prints a carrage return. I actually got round
this particular instance by using the adminmisc extension to retrieve the
computername, but I am looking at doing some more auditing which will
require retrieving registry keys from machines where the user does not have
administrative rights so any help that can be given will be greatly
appreicated
Thanks in advance,
Mike
