Every hour? :-) Scripting it shouldn't be too hard although you could be setting yourself up for security problems and a loss of VNC availability if you upload an iffy config. :-) 1. Use REGDIR to get the settings you need from your control workstation. 2. Pipe that to a file and upload to a secure site (or encrypt the document perhaps?) On the target machines: 1. Write a script to use REGINI and WGET. Download the file using WGET and then get REGINI to apply that file to the registry - although some sort of error checking would be a good idea! <w> 2. Once that's done just restart the VNC service and your new settings will be applied. You could use AT (or WinAT) to schedule the changes on NT boxes and that windows scheduler thingy for ME/2000/XP systems. Service control on 9x operating systems is a bit hit and miss...... getting VNC to restart on that could well be difficult. Perhaps you could kill the process and relaunch it instead. <shrug> Regards, Richard --------------------------------------------- Richard Harris Environment Nottinghamshire County Council Ext: 4509 --------------------------------------------- This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
