Windows Nt 4.0. We have several workstations that the Network Access Order needs to be changed on. Most of them run the Netware client. We need change the access order to NT first. If I can find the Reg key that controls this I can modify it and export it to floppy. Pop in the floppy, exe. it then be on my way. Does anyone know where to find this key in the Reg. that shows the Network Access Order.

Thanks in Advance

It's pretty easy to just go into Control Panel, Network, (or just right-click Network Neighborhood and choose Properties); and change the Primary Network Logon to whatever you want. Your choices are limited by the clients that are installed. This is what it looks like in Win9x, but I'm pretty sure it's similar in NT.
This way, you won't even need to bother with a floppy disk or running an .exe file.

Our users do not have admin rights to the local workstation. If they are logged in you would have to log them out and sign in as admin to make the changes then it requires a reboot. If the changes could be make in the reg. remotely or from a floppy the changes would take effect when the user shuts down for the evening and restarts. Thanks anyway.
