    - is there a way to set user enviroment from vbscript? I tried the example from the script help Dim WshShell, WshEnv Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set WshEnv = WshShell.Environment("USER") ' I replaced PROCESS with USER hoping for better result WshEnv("TestVar") = "Windows Script Host" However when the script finishes, there is no TestVar around in the dos prompt that executed the script.. I only need the set an environment variable just for the DOS prompt session. Tag: a Tag: 184199

    - Redirects - 301 vs. 302 Our site uses response.redirect statements intensively to simplify our internal links. We have recently purchased a Google Search appliance, which requires us to use 301 redirects (using Response.Status and Response.AddHeader instead) to work correctly. I have tested this method, and it appears to work correctly. I understand that some browsers may change bookmarks to the destination URL, which is fine as well. I am just wondering if there are any other differences that I should be aware of before making this change. Feel free to point me to a more appropriate newsgroup if this is OT. Thanks!

    - MS Cluster scripting question I'm trying to pull all the Cluster Names in the domain using a VBScript. I have seen this reference to the Cluster Automation Server on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/mscs/mscs/clusapplication_clusternames.asp It looks like I should be able to do this with something similar to this (which of course doesn't work). I am running this on the Cluster server: ~~~~~~ Set objCluster = CreateObject("MSCluster.ClusApplication") set objClust2 = objCluster.ClusterNames("acme.local") For Each objClust In objClust2 WScript.Echo objClust.Item Next I have this script that works to pull the active node from a group so I think I'm on the right track: Set objCluster = CreateObject("MSCluster.Cluster") objCluster.Open("sql1t") WScript.Echo objCluster.ResourceGroups.Item("Cluster Group").OwnerNode.Name Set objCluster = Nothing TIA Chris Bodnar Tag: a Tag: 184192

    - scan log and send email I have a spam blocker running on my exchange server (GFI MailEssentials). I have it set to log any emails that were deleted by the keyword checking part of it. I'd like to set up a script that runs once a day that will scan the log file and send an email to the original recipient with a list of emails that were deleted. Here's the layout of the log file: (also attached as a text file) "11/29/05 08:53:01","Anti-Spam Keyword Checking","vxbhqfotnwl@hotmail.com","username1@domaina.com","Viagra Pro will make you happy with life","Deleted","Found word(s) viagra in the subject" "11/29/05 10:25:29","Anti-Spam Keyword Checking","futzonscpqx@hotmail.com","username2@domaina.com","Soft Cialis - ideal remedy for impotence.","Deleted","Found word(s) Impotence CIALIS in the subject" "11/29/05 16:11:57","Anti-Spam Keyword Checking","dqndwfvdfhk@hotmail.com",username1@domaina.com," Spend money only for the best quality. Buy software at OEM Software Store.","Deleted","Found word(s) OEM Software in the subject" What's the best way to go about creating a script that will scan the file (by date) and send an email to the correct user? In this case username1 will receive an email with the first and last log entries and username 2 with the other one. There are many users on the server with quite a few emails being deleted each day.

    - Can I compile / package up client side vbscript so an end user can't view it in a html file? Hi, Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm a bit new to vbscript... We've got a client app written so it uses client side vb script in a few html pages to provide basic functionality (don't ask why, someone else designed it!). The problem is, you can do the classic 'right click, view source' and find out exactly how it all works. Not too great eh? My first question is: Is there a way to remove the vbscript and compile / obfuscate it into a package which can be included into the project? Now, we've also got a web site which is also vbscript heavy which has the same problem. And so, same question again for this... Thanks in advance, Martin Pritchard Tag: a Tag: 184177

    - List user's mapped drives on a remote PC I'm trying to come up with a scripted methodology of listing the mapped drives of the current user on remote PCs. I've found an article on Technet's Hey Scripting Guys archive (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/qanda/oct05/hey1027.mspx ) that describes what I want to do perfectly. I have built my script around this code, but have found that, although the article states "As usual, you can modify this script to run against a remote computer simply by assigning the name of that machine to the variable strComputer", you cannot enumerate the shares on a remote PC (XP in this case) - the response always comes back blank. The same methodology works great when run locally on the PC. How would I go about listing the mapped drives used by the current user of a remote PC?

    - Run Logon Script on Workstations Only I am creating a script that I want to run at logon in a Windows NT domain, but want it to execute on Windows 2000 or XP Professional Workstations only, not on Servers. We have several admins that use the same username to log on to both their workstations, and servers, creating issues if the same script executes when they log on to their servers. While I am able to use the System environment variable to determine that the OS is Windows_NT, and use a subsequent registry read of HKLM\Software\Windows NT\CurrentControlSet\CurrentControlSet to determine the OS version as 5.0 or 5.1. This doesn't tell me whether the machine is XP/2000 professional, or server 2000/2003. This sounds real easy, but I have been researching this, and, as of yet, have been unable to locate an efficient way to tell whether the local machine is a workstation or server. Do you have any suggestions that will work in a large environment (10000 + workstations and servers)? Tag: a Tag: 184115

    - deleting users in AD Hi I've written a script to delete some users from Windows 2000 Active Directory, I would also like to remove their home folders and Exchange mailboxes. I'm using the code below: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- dim fso set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set f1 = fso.OpenTextFile("C:\temp\DelUser.txt") Do While not f1.atEndOfStream strUser = f1.readline Set objItem = GetObject("LDAP://CN=" & strUser &_ ",ou=Management,dc=NA,dc=fabrikam,dc=com") strprofilePath = objItem.Get("profilePath") ' WScript.Echo "profilePath: " & strprofilePath strhomeDirectory = objItem.Get("homeDirectory") ' WScript.Echo "homeDirectory: " & strhomeDirectory fso.deletefolder strhomeDirectory, True Set objOU = GetObject("LDAP://ou=Management,dc=NA,dc=fabrikam,DC=com") objOU.Delete "User", "CN=" & StrUser Loop ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The code to delete the users works fine (their names are all in a text file which the script reads). I can also read the users home folder but I cannot work out a way to delete the folder once it is read. I'm also unsure as to how to go out about removing the users Exchange mailboxes as I am deleting them. Any help greatly appreciated. Tony Tag: a Tag: 184088

    - Please critique this HTA (Change Database Remotely) Hello. As a novice in both VBScript and HTML, I usually find code snippets, tweak 'em to my specifications, then bolt 'em all together to accomplish what I need. Like in this case. The following script works fine, but I'm sure it can be streamlined, corrected, and the redundancy removed. This HTA will be used to "change the database" of a remote server, which involves 3 major tasks: A. Make specific changes to the Registry (using .REG files) B. Copy a specific Configuration.xml file C. Restart IIS The high level functions of the HTA are as follows: 1. Enter or select a server (opens that server's version.ini file once selected) 2. Select a "release" (determines the source PATH for the Configuration.xml and .REG files) 3. Select a "database" (determines the source Configuration.xml and .REG files to be copied) 4. If the target Configuration.xml and .REG files exist and are Read Only, remove the Read Only attribute 5. Enable the "Change Database" button only when the server, release and database have been selected. 6. After the "Change Database" button is clicked and the script is executed: - reset all variables - reset text and list boxes - disable the "Change Database" button Some obvious things that I imagine can be addressed: - The conditional IF statement used to enable the "Change Database" button...I've had to put it in multiple subroutines. Is there a better way? - I'm using the sysinternals.com utility PSEXEC to remotely change the Registry. Is there a better way? - I'm using the sysinternals.com utility PSEXEC to remotely restart IIS. Is there a better way? - I'm using repeated entries of the HTML " " to insert a large number of spaces in between text and listboxes. Is there a better way? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    - Img Src=asp page Hi, My site (site A) is a referral site that sends leads to advertisers (site B) on our site. When the user clicks on one of the advertisers, we drop a cookie on their machine. The cookie has an expiration date of 30 days. When the user buys a product and the receipt page is loaded, there is an image tag pointing to an asp page on Site A. For instance (<img src=" http://www.siteA.com/roitracker/roitracker.asp?ID=123&price=456&orderNo=789" width=1 height=1>) As you can see, we pass 3 parameters. We upload those parameters to our database. This code works in Firefox. It only works in IE if we allow permissions for 3rd party cookies. Any ideas how to solve this issue and get around the security for IE? is there another way that we can fix this issue? Please advise. Thanks Tag: a Tag: 184056
