Exporting the security settings associated with specific keys.

Does anyone know of a good way to get the security settings on specific
registry keys? I need to audit the registry on several hundred Windows
2000 machines, part of which is looking at the security settings of
specific keys.

I have Python code using WMI and the win32all package to get some of
this information, but I was curious if anyone knew of a commandline
tool that would get this information remotely.
Thanks for any help,

Wayne
 
Hi,
Use the following command:
"telnet ip port"
"reg export keyname filename"
You can use them in a *.bat file.

I think the OP wanted the registry ACLs, not content. And I suspect
that a telnet server is not very likely running on "several hundred",
most probably, LAN-client systems.

psexec.exe (Sysinternals) and setacl.exe (Sourceforge) might be
useful in this case perhaps. I do not think the OP gave enough
details to be certain.
 
Sorry for the delay, I was AFK for a little while.

I am looking for way to export who has access to read, edit or delete
specific registry keys. Someone pointed me to a program called
DumpACLL, which works but the output is in a binary format that my
program cannot read.

I'll take a look at the two programs you suggested and see if they
work. Thanks for the informaiton.
