LSREG(1)                System General Commands Manual                LSREG(1)

NAME
     lsreg - list the value of a registry entry
     regdump - list critical registry values

SYNOPSIS
     lsreg [--v | --V] regpath [paths...]
     regdump

DESCRIPTION
     The lsreg utility will print the value of a registry entry to standard
     out. The regpath is specified in Unix syntax to make easier in the
     Interix environment.  The content of the registry entry is printed with-
     out any conversion.  As a shorthand you may specify HKLM for the registry
     path Registry/Machine.

     The options to lsreg are as follows:

     -v      Be slight verbose by printing the name of the registry key as a
             prefix to the output line of data from the key.

     -V      Be very verbose and print the entire registry path before print-
             ing the output from this entry.

     The regdump utility is really a shell script that uses lsreg to print out
     critical registry entries. Often these entry values are needed when a
     support question happens. It is also useful to verify these values after
     updates or hotfixes are applied since some hotfixes and updates have,
     erroneously, made changes to these registry entries causing problems.

     There are no options to regdump.

SAMPLES
     On Interix 6.0 print the state of the setuid ability:
             % lsreg -v /HKLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/SUA/EnableSetuidBinaries
             EnableSetuidBinaries: 1

DIAGNOSTICS
     The lsreg utility shall exit with one of the following values: 0 when
     successful and >0 when not successful.

ENVIRONMENT
     No environment variables are used.

NOTES
     You must already know the registry path exactly. There is no file expan-
     sion or wildcards allowed at present with the registry paths.
