Editting the registry?

I want to restore the default admin shares on a user's machine.

I have to delete the following key from the registry.

To restore the default hidden administrative shares, delete the
AutoShareWks=20
DWORD value in the following registry key, and then restart your
computer:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControl
Set\Services\LanmanServer\Parame
ters

Can someone point me in the right direction? Possibly a tutorial for
doing=20
this in perl.=20

Thanks in Advance.

Put the MY in braces.

SO
print MY $line;

WOULD BECOME
print {MY} $line;

Install the Win32::Registry2 patch from
http://Jenda.Krynicky.cz/#Win32::Registry2 and read the docs.
(The patch will become the next version of the module if a new
version of libwin32 ever gets released.)

Another option is Win32::TieRegistry.

You can restart the computer by
use Win32;
Win32::InitiateSystemShutdown( undef, "The machine goes down
dudes.", 10, 0, 1);

See
perldoc Win32

Hey Jenda,

I am still trying to figure out the syntax/structure, etc of Perl but I
figured it out. Here is my simple script..=20

#!path\to\perl\
use Win32::Registry
$HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->DeleteValue($AutoShareWks);
=20
 Win32::Registry::DeleteValue('HKEY_LOCAL
_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSe
t\Services\lanmanserver\parameters', $AutoShareWks);

If someone has something different (easier or harder) let me know....=20

Thanks

I have a Quick question about running the script as a logon script in
Windows using Active Directory. How?  When the user logs on the script
is run local. Obviously, I need Perl installed on the server to
interpret locally run scripts. If the user doesn't have Perl installed
locally how will it execute? Do I need to encapsulate the script inside
of WSH?  What are the other W2k admins doing? I am currently searching
for an answer now (google) but thought I would throw it on the list as
well.=20

Thanks

Perl2bat creates the batch file below. However, running it on my local
machine does not delete the registry key. Is there anything I'm missing?

@rem =3D '--*-Perl-*--
@echo off
if "%OS%" =3D=3D "Windows_NT" goto WinNT
perl -x -S "%0" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9

:WinNT
perl -x -S %0 %*
if NOT "%COMSPEC%" =3D=3D "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" goto endofperl
if %errorlevel% =3D=3D 9009 echo You do not have Perl in your PATH.
if errorlevel 1 goto script_failed_so_exit_with_non_zero_val 2>nul
goto endofperl
@rem ';
#!C:\perl\bin\perl=20

You can install Perl on a server share and then wrap the script in a=20
.BAT (using the pl2bat script installed with ActivePerl) and map a=20
drive letter to the share as the first thing in the BAT and then run=20
the script.

That's what I used to do when I was an admin.

You should add some code that will create a log file or something
just to make sure the code was run.

You should also check whether the DeleteValue() succeeded.

It's possible that the account under which the script ran did not
have enough permissions to make the change.

If you will then run this from the login with Perl installed on a
server share you will have to modify the start of the BAT like this:

@rem = '--*-Perl-*--
@echo off
net use W: \\server\tools
if "%OS%" == "Windows_NT" goto WinNT
w:\perl\bin\perl -x -S "%0" %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
goto endofperl
:WinNT
w:\perl\bin\perl -x -S %0 %*
if NOT "%COMSPEC%" == "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" goto endofperl
if %errorlevel% == 9009 echo You do not have Perl in your PATH.
if errorlevel 1 goto script_failed_so_exit_with_non_zero_val 2>nul
goto endofperl
@rem ';
#!C:\perl\bin\perl
#line 16
...
