Is there a way to programmatically turn on remote registry?

[Kevin Holleran]

Tim,

I am re-implementing in my script now.  I'll let you know how it goes... I
just realized that the key that I sent over was completely wrong.... I am
not sure how I even got it as it is the combination of two different keys
from two different scripts... must have been working too long and
everything blending together... :)

Thanks for your help!

Kevin
