Adding a Registry Key via Group Policy on Windows server 2008 R2

Question

Hi all;
I need to add the following Registry Key and values to several PCs across the network, I tried doing so via a logon script and via Registry Preferences through GP but it didn't work!
Method 1: Logon script:
regedit.exe /S \\bbk-files\BBK Templates\slxbasic.reg
The slxbasic.reg contains the following:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SalesLogix\ADOLogin\Connection1]
"Alias"="BBKSLX_PRODUCTION"
"Provider"="SLXOLEDB.1"
"Initial Catalog"="BBKSLX_PRODUCTION"
"Data Source"="BBK-SLX1"
"DBUser"=""
"Extended Properties"="PORT=1706;LOG=ON"
Method 2: GP Preference:
I add the above mentioned values via the GP Preference for the Registry and still didn't work, I also tried the Registry wizard and imported the required Registry info from another PC and still didn't work.
When I check the GP result for the required PCs, I see that the GP is applied, but when I check the registry, I don't find the required values their!
Please help.

Answer 1

Hi,
>>When I'm processing a GP results report, I'm processing it for a certain PC and a certain user, and I look at the User's applied policies and I can find the policy
there.
How is the issue going? Are we still unable to see the value in the Registry?
>>Users have permissions on the shred drive and can navigate to the location and run the .reg file manually.
After we ran the script manually, did we check the Registry to see if the value had been changed?
Best regards,
