You should be able to dump the registry to a .reg file (using
regedit). And as for the settings that say server vs.
workstation, don't worry. The settings are protected by NT so
you CAN'T change them (not without a few special programs anyways *g* )
This should work for you. As the saying goes YMMV (Your milage may vary).
