How can I deploy registry keys?

Now I'm trying to deploy a *.bat file with the value:
regedit.exe /s \\server\regfile.reg
This doesn't work.
I know that the bat-file works, because I tried it manually.
What am I doing wrong?

My first guess would be a permissions issue getting to the server where the reg file is. If you're using you current authentication, you won't be able to access a network share from the installer. Change the authentication to specify the account name and password (even if the same as current) and then the installer service will be able to access the share.
I'm using the domain admin account and PDQD can access the bat file.(all other commands are executed)
It's just the "regedit.exe line" that doesn't work...
Solution: Change the administrator!
I was executing the bat-file with the Domain-admin account. registry Hive I wanted to deploy was [HKCU]...
Changed it to [HKLM] and it works!
My mistake...
Excellent, I'm glad you got it working.
