    - Start and manipulate a web page via vbscript remotely Hello group, the following requirement to programatically control device/s via VBScript may interest many experiencing similar issues.... Background: Cable modem - connected to ISP. Router - connected between Cable Modem & LAN. Problem: ISP continually has network issues and requires End-User to restart Cable modem and then the Router. Although inconvenient, this is OK if End User is on site at the time. Question for Group; Taking into account the above information, can I perform the following programatically with VBScript: 1. Connect to the cable modem's web page and select the "Reboot" button from a LAN W2K3 PC/server? 2. Connect to the Router's web page, supply credentials and select the "Restart" button from a LAN W2K3 PC/server? Note: I have a scheduled job executing a VBScript that monitors the Cable connection to the ISP. When this script detects that the connection is down, I want the proposed "Restart" Script to run. This script must be able to be run without having an End User log on to run the script. This may be asking too much, any Ideas greatly appreciated......

    - Can you use a vbs script in a non domain environment? I have about 300 laptops that do not belong to a domain. I would like to find a way of running a vbs login sript to call a batch file. All of the vbs scripts that I can find are for domains. We would like to be able to leave the batch file empty most of the time, but have the option of pushing configurations thru the batch file by adding to the batch file. I realize that if we were on a domain this could be all done thru group policy, but we are not. I also realize that I could add a shortcut to the startup folder that would point to the batch file, but then it could be removed very easily. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - VBS to list groups/users and authorities on a shared folder Hi, Trying to comply with some SOX stuff. I need to come up with a list of shared folders, users or groups, and rights. I can get the list of shared objects using objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from win32_Share"). This generates a list of shared objects on our 2000 or above computers. It's a start. Is there anything generic to both NT and 2000+ ? Also how would I take the "objShare's" in the query and get the list of users and rights? Thanks for any help.

I have created the instances of __EventFilter, __EventConsumer and __FilterToConsumerBinding and can see them using CIM studio but nothing appears to happen when the entry changes.

    - Changing security settings on registry keys and folder with script? X-posted to: microsoft.public.scripting.wsh; microsoft.public.scripting.vbscript Hi everyone! System is Windows XP Pro pcs on a Server 2003 Domain. I need to give normal users (either groups "everyone" or "users") write access to certain registry keys (and sub keys) and folders (and subfolders). Basically, critical apps need admin rights by default, which we are not going to give. :-) I have to do this on many pcs, so think a script would be easiest. I have downloaded the TechNet Script Center package, but haven't found a template suitable for either application. Could someone please advise on what commands I need, or privide some template examples. If so, I'd really appreciate it. Any help or tips appreciated too. :-) Many thanks in advance. grol Tag: How to Change Users profile directory in Active Directory via script? Tag: 171587

    - Can WINNT:// or Winnmgnts: read accounts from a domian controller? I use Torgeir Bakken's script ( modified) to query only local administrator on servers (NT/win2k/win2k3). However, when a remote server is a domain controller, I get the information of the domain enterprise administor account, instead of the local administrator. I think I should not get anything on a remote DC since SAM is looked out on a DC. Why? Also I try to use example 2 to query all local user accounts.

    - IE Trusted Sites Not sure if wirting a script for this purpose is the easiest way to go... But it's always fun to do so, especially, when you get it going :- ) Anyway, basically, we have a vbs script that inputs a list of trusted sites both for Internet, Local Intranet, and Trusted Sites (all under the Security Tab). It works very well as far as its purpose... However, the annoying part though is that, after applying these parameters, whenever an access goes through any of the sites on the list and then redirects to another domain name, say, *.yahoo.com, it always ask if I wuld like to allow access to the redirected site. What I would like to accomplish is to get rid of this message and just let me through the redirected page. A script to do this?Or maybe just a quick registry change on the local system? I'll take any approach (he-he-he). Thank you so much :- ) Newbie ar11z4404@hotmail.com Tag: How to Change Users profile directory in Active Directory via script? Tag: 171558

    - can't get nbtstat to work using shell script in WINXP I found a script on this site to get the users MAC address using nbtstat.

Now I now how to reset it to a hidden share remotely when creating the folder, but what I need is a vbs script that will run on the server 24 / 7 and once an hour verify that all of the user shares (But not the subfolders of the parent) are still shared out? Is there a way of limiting the verification to just the parent folder and then loop through all of the parent folders in the share? Thanks!!!

    - MsgBox to display while processing Hopefully there is a simple solution to my dilemma. I have a script as follows: 1. A MsgBox is displayed to ask user if they want to proceed. 2. After they click Yes, the MsgBox disappears and the script begins processing. 3. Processing takes about 30 seconds to complete. 4. After the processing has completed, a MsgBox is displayed to inform the user the process has completed. I'd like to have a MsgBox display during the 30 seconds of processing to tell the user to "Please wait." I don't need a progress bar or anything fancy like that - just a simple message so the user doesn't think the script has hung. Is this possible? Thanks!

    - VBscript Search and Replace conundrum I have an application where the INI files are "dumb" and always write the path c:\ to a couple of INI files. "vwcmim.ini" and "vwgsmm.ini" in the windows directory. I want to list drives (like xternal), check them for data directory, and if it's found replace c:\ with <drive:\> in the INI files. I've got to the point where it does process the files but instead of putting in the drive letter it just erases the old drive letter c: with a null string. I am wondering what I'm doing wrong, or if anybody's got a better idea for simple file text search/replace. VBscript code follows. It has to run from a command prompt using cscript <scriptname> ' This script finds and replaces the drive C: with the correct drive letter in the ' INI see below (see SubFolder) ' This allows vACBI to run even where the data drive letter is not c: ' Owen Gilmore - owen.gilmore@united.com ' aogilmore@sbcglobal.net ' 7:20 AM 1/10/2005 Option Explicit Dim WshProcessEnvironment Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set WshProcessEnvironment = WshShell.Environment("Process") 'Define Object Variables Dim FSys Dim xFolder Dim xFiles Dim xFile Dim tFile Dim wshShell 'On Error Resume Next Dim strComputer Dim objWMIService Dim colItems Dim objFSO Dim objShell Dim strmsg Dim u_Drv Dim u_MedPath Dim objItem Dim EnvWinDir ' Define Working Variables Dim SubFolder Dim FileText 'Get some necessary environment variables EnvWinDir = WshProcessEnvironment("windir") 'Define Constants CONST U_File1 = "vwcmim.ini" CONST U_File2 = "vwgsmm.ini" Const ForReading = 1 Const ForWriting = 2 Const TristateUseDefault = -2 'On Error Resume Next strComputer = "."

    - ADO-Security Warnings accessing Datasource Hi, Im writing an asp site using vbscript. It accesses my SQL-Server through an ODBC-Datasource that is defined on the IIS. The code is set Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Conn.open "DSN=XXX;UID=YYY;pwd=ZZZ" Set RS = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") sql = "SELECT * FROM tblMyTab WHERE Col1='Test'" RS.open sql, conn msgbox RS.fields("Col2") RS.close I'm using this code twice: (1) Once in the main procedure that is executed everytime the page ist displayed and a second time (2) in a sub that is called by an on_click event. In both cases it works correctly, but: Only in case (2) there come up two messages (translated): "ADO-Security Warning: This website uses an dataprovider who is prabably not secure. If you trust the website, click OK, otherwiese click cancel." and thereafter "ADO-Security Warning: This website is using your identity while accessing a datasource. If you trust the website, click OK, otherwiese click cancel." Does anyone know how to prevent this messages? Why do they only come up in (2)? Thank you in advance!
