In tip 0572, I described how to remotely edit a W9x registry.
When you Connect Network Registry in Regedit, it does not send a name query, using the correct NetBIOS suffix.
Regedit only attempts to contact the remote ComputerName.
Regedt32 first tries the remote ComputerName, but if that fails, it then tries ComputerName <00>.
