I need to generate a registry hive for Windows 2003 Server. My code is
running on a Linux system.

Where can I obtain the binary file format for the Windows registry hive to
do this? Is this information available only under license from Microsoft?

Thanks,


Siddharth
 
I need to generate the binary files:

WINDOWS\system32\config\DEFAULT, SAM, SECURITY, SOFTWARE and SYSTEM.

These files constitute the registry hive for Windows. In order to generate
them I need documentation for their binary format. My code runs on Linux so I
am unable to utilize the Win32 registry APIs to accomplish this.

Thanks,


Siddharth
