We have a need to use some machines on a site where Internet access is set up using a proxy.pac script. Currently our clients ignore this setting and don't connect. I have seen that in the GPO for 4.6 there is a setting to allow pac settingsto be recognised.
As we will not be able to use GPOs for these machines has anyone extracted this setting to a reg key so that it can be deployed independently? We can load the 4.6 client on these client machines, the servers are currently 4.5
Any help appreciated.

Well the key is:
HKLM\Software\Policies\VMware, Inc\VMware VDM\Client\
Name: UseProxyDotPacFile
Type: REG_SZ
Data: true
The registry setting is not in the Policies folder and there is a period character on the end of VMWare, Inc.
It is
HKLM\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\
Name: UseProxyDotPacFile
Type: REG_SZ
Data: true
