Remote Control and Asking Permission
Remote Control and Asking Permission
- I work at a school district and am currently working on a migration to SCCM 2007. In testing, one thing we are very used to having in our current setup, (Novell Zenworks) is the ability to require permission to remote control staff members, but not require remote control to students. This apparently is a site setting, and am wondering if anyone has found a way to tweak this so that we could have different remote control settings depending on the user. IE Group policies making this setting. Thanks

Or, the recommended and supported solution is to use the SDK to create local policies to set that value. Then deploy the local policy to the users that you want changed from the site defaults.

- Hi,
Are we talking about the ConfigMgr. remote tools or Remote Assistance? Permissions for ConfigMgr. remote tools can modified in the registry on the clients. You can configure this value HKLM\Software\Microsoft\SMS\Client\Client Component\Remote Control\Permission Required=0

However, I'm not sure about the best way to deploy this key so that teachers get Permission Required=1, and students get Permission Required=0. I've tried using group policy management editor, selected my policy that I'm using and gone to: Computer Configuration>Preferences>Windows Settings>Registry: and added this setting, but the setting isn't applied to my XP-sp3 workstation. Other group policy settings are applying just fine with this same policy. How would you recommend deploying this key? Do you know if there is a limitation in pushing registry settings via group policies to winXP? Thanks
- Hi,
Create a regfile and use ConfigMgr. to deploy the file. Simply create a package with no source files and create a program like this regedit.exe /S \\server\share\regfile.reg
