Hello all, 

I'm having trouble getting output from this plug-in consistenly from
every server.  Windows Server 2000 and 2003 specifically. I only get
results for two or three servers out of 20 or so in the target host
file.  I'm using administrative privileges to run the scan and have
verified the account exists on the target.  The policy is configured to
run other checks requiring admin rights and those appear to be working.
Is there some other setting I need to make within the policy?  I looked
at the source for the plug-in and I see that it has several
dependencies.  Could this be an authentication or an permissions issue
on the target, meaning the account I'm using doesn't have enough
privileges, even as admin, to have full access to the registry?  Any
help would be appreciated.
