Figure 5-4
Add Registry Criterion
Note
You can use the value types to be specified in this window as a guide to set up one or more secret criteria
within the remote client’s system to match those specified for this location. For example, you can add a
DWORD (double word, an unsigned 32-bit integer) value or string value to a registry key on client
computers to qualify them for the location you are configuring.
Step 1
Assign values to the mandatory attributes in the Add or Edit Registry Criterion dialog box as follows:
•
Entry Path
menu—Choose the
hive
, the initial directory path of a registry key. The options are as
follows:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
HKEY_USERS\
Each string references a registry base that stores different information. The
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
path is the most commonly used one because it contains the machine-specific registry files.
•
Entry Path
field—Enter the name of the registry key required to be present on or absent from the
client system.
Note
Refer to the subsequent attribute descriptions for examples of Entry Path strings.
Step 2
Click one radio button from the following list and assign the associated values:
•
Exists
—Click if the mere presence of the named registry key on the remote client PC is sufficient
to match the location you are configuring.
