REgini syntax

What syntax do I use to change permissions on a key and all of it's child
objects?

I have

\registry\machine\software\burli [1 17]

the above is an example.

what do I need to add to have those permissions propagate down? thanks

You should check the regini.doc that accompanies the regini.exe reskit tool
for full documentation.

I do not have a regini.doc. I installed the resource kit and the doc is
nowhere to be found. Can someone just please tell me the syntax..if it's
possible?

I don't think it is possible for regini to automatically cascade
permissions down to all child objects (somebody please prove me
wrong).

You can use Regdmp, or similar, to get everything that currently
exists and then edit the output (programatically or otherwise) to
apply the desired permissions.

Other options are Subinacl (also in the resource kit), Setacl
(freeware), using Group Policy (if in a domain), and creating
templates for use with Secedit (if using Win2K or newer).

What OS are you using? Is this for a domain? Do you need a solution
for pushing out changes?
