Good morning

I want to run un file .reg (an export of a registry key) on a list of
server (over 30), what is the best solution?

Many thanks

Depends on whether it will be a one-time-only action or you'll need to
repeat this. For the latter the best approach would be creating an ADM
file. For the former, you can use:
1) PsExec from Pstools on www.sysinternals.com to remotely execute
regedit /s \\myserver\myshare\MyRegFile.reg
You can put the above 2 commands in a script, feed a text file with the
servers' names as an input parameter and execute these commands in a
loop
2) Startup or shutdown script

For a one-time action I'd go for 1) - it doesn't introduce any changes
to your environment and you can instantly see if it fails.
