Basically when i am at work remote registry works fine if i want to connect/edit a registry of down-level client(98 box) from a win2k machine - as per normal.

But when i do remote admin, usually TS over vpn to one of DC's, (or just vpn by itself)I cannot connect to client registry's - weird -yeah and theres no problems connecting to w98 clients drives/shares or printers - but no registry access.

-network is win2k domain, no problems with any of the 2k clients(nor there should be !)
-NTLMis set to v2 for all machines - 2k/98
-remote registry service is installed on 98 clients, user level security, default is domain admins set access 98 box as per usual etc.

I suspect i may have to tweak the 9x registrys somewhere, as i guess itsa secure pipe problem ?

anyways be cool for someone to anwser this, beers will be one me !

hi,
just a quick thought have you tried using TS on internal network to connect to 98 etc.
i dont have the answears for this but hoping to learn some!! as i use upn over 2k server and pro all ok no probs at all. i never tried it with 98 because ofsecrurity issues.

Lloyd , yeah all is good now, turns out its was the settings on one of the servers(DC security policy), 98clients were using NTLM not NTLMv2, even tho it was set to NTLMv2 on the 98boxs,

quite a misc bug really, as it only seems to effects vpn use,ts over vpn, not LAN.
