Stupid question.

Is there any way to change Registry settings on all the machines in an OU
for example?

I need to change a registry setting on all domain computers however im not
sure how best to go about it - i dont want to manually touch every machine.

Yes. You need to create a new .adm file and import this into your policy.

Search the web for .adm and administrative templates.

Thanks paul

if i wanted to add this can you give me a quick guide how to do it?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{540D8A8B-1C3F-4E32-8132-530F6A502090}]
@="Language bar" "MenuTextPUI"="@%SystemRoot%\\System32\\msutb.dll,-325"

HOW TO: Create Custom Administrative Templates in Windows 2000


or you could run a script from a Windows XP workstation:

@echo off
setlocal
for /f "Tokens=*" %%a in ('dsquery computer "OU=OU_TEST,DC=JSIINC,DC=ORG" -o rdn') do (
call :doit %%a
)
endlocal
goto :EOF
:doit
set computer=%1
set computer=%computer:"=%
@echo %computer%
reg add "\\%computer%\HKLM\Software\somekey1\Somekey2" /V SomeValueName /T REG_DWORD /D 123 /F
@echo.
