Is there a way to automate the CFX tags installation?

Question

Hello,
I'm currently in the process of re-installing a web farm of ColdFusion 8 servers (W2K8, IIS 7.5).
I have to install a number of CFX tags (C++) on each server to get the code running.
Is there a way to automate the installation of the CFX tags (regedit imports, VBS, PowerShell...)?
I found some link indicating that keys should be imported in the registry at: HKLM\Software\Allaire, but Allaire does not even exist in this branch (I believe that the instructions were true of older versions of CF).
I installed one of the tags manually and noticed that the file neo-runtime.xml was updated with:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<wddxPacket version="1.0">
  <header/>
  <data>
    <array length="18">
      <boolean value="true"/>
      <struct type="coldfusion.server.ConfigMap">
        <var name="session_variables">
          <boolean value="false"/>
        </var>
        <var name="application_variables">
          <boolean value="false"/>
        </var>
        <var name="server_variables">
          <boolean value="false"/>
        </var>
      </struct>
      <struct type="coldfusion.server.ConfigMap">
        <var name="cfx_http5">
          <struct type="coldfusion.server.ConfigMap">
            <var name="NAME">
              <string>cfx_http5</string>
            </var>
            <var name="CACHE">
              <string>true</string>
            </var>
            <var name="PROCEDURE">
              <string>ProcessTagRequest</string>
            </var>
            <var name="DESCRIPTION">
              <string/>
            </var>
            <var name="TYPE">
              <string>cpp</string>
            </var>
            <var name="LIBRARY">
              <string>D:\ColdFusion8\cfx\cfx_http5\cfxhttp5.dll</string>
            </var>
          </struct>
        </var>
      </struct>
Can I simply add the XML node to get it running?
Thanks in advance for any lead to the solution.

This is great! but I'm not there yet. I figured how to assign little midi triggered melodies to a touch track. I used to do stuff like this on an old Buchla years ago. How do I get the automation on the midi track to control the filter on an audio track? I created regions with the automation I want on a midi track, then I assigned those regions to keys with touch tracks. How do I get that to control the filter on the audio track?
thanks,
Lee
