Has anyone worked with a product that has to the ability to package the permissions on registry keys. I am at the moment struggling with this using Ghost 7.5 AI, Altiris Rapid Deploy 5.5, and that free MSI packager included on the Win2k CD.
 
I realize that you can use regini.exe (through logon scripts) from the resource kits, but the powers that be, would rather have it far more granular than what regini can do.
 
Anyone work with the Active Directory method of controlling registry keys?? What about EPAL?
 
Basically once these applications are packaged and ready for deployment, I need to find a way to get certain apps to run under USER permissions.
 
PS....Already tried adding them as power users and/or compatibility security mode...
 
Opinions, Ideas, Comments, would all be GREATLY appreciated.

OP
For those who are interested
 
EPAL - Does work, but the application has a 300% increase in loading time as it searches AD for the correct permissions. Those higher up were addament into saying this was not a solution.
 
AD - works far better at distributing the correct registry keys so that applications that need the correct permissions to launch, receive them.
