Is there a simple registry key I could change to accomplish the same thing? If so, I could easily create a simple GPO to set the key to a known value and deploy the GPO to our systems to get this over with...

1. Set up a Host and configure the Host settings as you want, by directly accessing 'Settings for Host' through the program GUI.
2. Export the registry key:
4. (Optional) Delete the registry key:
I recommend that you first try this method on 1-2 Hosts before deploying the script right away. Apply it on 1-2 affected Hosts and check their settings to make sure that everything worked as you intended.

2. Export the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Usoris\Remote Utilities Host\Host\Parameters\General3. ...and deploy it on all affected machines, replacing the General key already there.
4. (Optional) Delete the registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Usoris\Remote Utilities Host\Host\Parameters\InternetIdon affected machines.

For your information:
The
Generalkey contains all Host options including the 'Disable Internet-ID and callback connections'.
The
InternetIdkey contains the actual internet-ID code generated.
Hope that helps.
