[OT] Installing software on Samba shares

[Axel Thimm]

sorry, if this is slightly off topic, but I think this problem is faced by
many Samba admins:

I have set up a nice Samba 2.2 controlled domain, with all (but W2K) machines
happily automounting a drive U:, which stands for utilities. I'd like to
install freeware stuff like ssh, cygwin etc. in this directory.

How do I deal with programs changing registry keys? Is there some mechanism
which would
a) identify which registry keys are changed,
b) sum up those changes into something (a policy?), that will be merged with
   the clients registry at netlogon time?

Thanks, Axel.
