Re: FW: Issue using regtool on a 64-bit Windows host

I am writing a PERL script to verify registry entries on a 64-bit
Windows R2 system. It appears that when doing the regtool command
"regtool list /HKLM/SOFTWARE/..." regtool is actually looking at
"/HKLM/Software/Wow6432Node/...". I am unable to get the registry info
for /HKLM/SOFTWARE. Does anyone have any ideas for this?
Use a 64-bit regtool. Um... which means you have to find a Microsoft
version, or build your own that doesn't rely on Cygwin. That, or port
gcc to Windows64. :-)
You could also investigate if there is a way to get around the 32->64
indirections, but you would have to update regtool to use it.
