Is there a way to programmatically turn on remote registry?

Couple of things:

Does the same thing happen if you run against your own machine?

What's the result of the code below (which is basically "raw" WMI,
without the wmi module):

<code>
import _winreg as winreg

import win32com.client

HKLM = winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
NICs =
"SYSTEM\\CurrentControlSet\\Control\\Class\\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002bE10318}"

registry = win32com.client.GetObject("winmgmts:/root/default:StdRegProv")
EnumKey = registry.Methods_("EnumKey")
params = EnumKey.InParameters.SpawnInstance_()
params.Properties_.Item("hDefKey").Value = HKLM
params.Properties_.Item("sSubKeyName").Value = NICs

OutParameters = registry.ExecMethod_("EnumKey", params)
print OutParameters.Properties_.Item("ReturnValue")
print OutParameters.Properties_.Item("sNames")


</code>
