Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2013-10-24 21:53:45 UTC
I think what we need from the *guest* are the following files:

C:/Windows/System32/config/SYSTEM
C:/Windows/System32/config/SOFTWARE

Note that because these might contain customer-sensitive
data such as passwords, you should be careful about how we
store and transfer them, and use the private flag when attaching
them to this BZ.

Comment 4 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-27 22:17:05 UTC
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
