Location of wireless config dataI operate a large network with multiple access points all on the same
network. I am looking at creating a script that will copy wireless configuration settings to users when I make changes to the access points. I can't seem to find the location of these configuration files. I know in XP home edition, you can use the Network Setup Wizard to automatically copy these files to and from a flash drive, but am wondering where this data is stored on XP Pro systems. Even to deploy these settings using a group policy or something would be useful. Any help would be great!! Thanks The configuration settings aren't in a file; they are in Registry.
Windows XP (Home and Pro) saves the configuration settings in an xml file. -- Show quoteHide quoteThanks, Gabriel Topala "TommyG" <Tom***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C2A2453F-7354-4B63-AE50-A36B3AFD8B1B@microsoft.com... >I operate a large network with multiple access points all on the same > network.

But using regmon (http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Regmon.html) I can see that the key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WZCSVC\Parameters\Interfaces\{XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX}\Static#0000 is changed every time I change the SSID or WEP Key. The SSID is shown in clear. -- Thanks, Gabriel Topala www.gtopala.com Show quoteHide quote "TommyG" <Tom***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:46587629-77D5-4485-AA41-502403AB80AE@microsoft.com... > Can you tell me where in the registry I could look for this information? > > Thanks > > "Gabriel Topala" wrote: > >> The configuration settings aren't in a file; they are in Registry. >> Windows XP (Home and Pro) saves the configuration settings in an xml >> file. >> -- >> Thanks, >> Gabriel Topala >> >> "TommyG" <Tom***@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message >> news:C2A2453F-7354-4B63-AE50-A36B3AFD8B1B@microsoft.com... >> >I operate a large network with multiple access points all on the same >> > network.
