Andrew Tridgell b4dd1accc8 s4-waf: don't depend directly on python modules 
build rules should not list dependencies on python modules. Instead,
if code needs the module it should use the python API import calls to
access the module.

README 

This is the registry library. The registry is basically a bunch of
hives, each of which is loaded from a file. When using a local registry, 
it is possible to specify where hives should be loaded from, etc. 

There are separate APIs for accessing the data in a hive and the 
data in the registry itself. Each supports different backends. 

The following "full registry" backends are currently provided:

 * Remote (over DCE/RPC)
 * Local (allows "mounting" hives)
 * Wine (uses the wine plain-text file)

The following hive backends are supported:

 - ldb 
 - regf (NTUSER.DAT-style files)
 - rpc (Remote individual hives)
 - directory

reg_open_samba() loads a set of hives based on smb.conf settings.
Lines in smb.conf should have the following syntax:

registry:<hivename> = <backend>:<location>

So an example usage could be:

registry:HKEY_CURRENT_USER = regf:NTUSER.DAT
registry:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = ldb:tdb://registry.tdb

WERR_NOT_SUPPORTED will be returned for all hives that haven't been set.

On Windows the various registry hives are loaded from:

HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\System
HKEY_CURRENT_USER: %Profile%\NTUser.dat
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SAM: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Sam
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Security
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Software
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\System
HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT: %SystemRoot%\System32\Config\Default
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE: is autogenerated
