Thanks again, sphardy,
Sadly, if I had the user privileges to change registry values on machines where I needed access, then I might as well install ReadyNAS Remote. On most of the machines in question, I won't. Just as you wouldn't in almost any Windows AD/GPO controlled environment that took security seriously.

Kindest regards,
