 - RMTShare/Permissions I'm needing to get a list of shares from specified servers and the permissions on said shares. Not being too good at VBScript, I ran across RMTShare. My problem is, by simply running "rmtshare \\server" I get a list of shares on the server, but not their permissions. For this I'd need to run "rmtshare \\server\share". The problem is that I need to automate the process. Does anyone know how I could do this with or without rmtshare? Is there some way to store the share list in a file (i.e. "rmtshare \\server > file.txt") and then have a VBScript access the file's data as an array to fill in "rmtshare \\server\share"? TIA.

 - EXE from ASP w/db connection I have an exe (VB) that performs updating and table inserts. Currently, a user would simply double click the exe to execute. Now I want to call this from ASP. When I do so, my log file (which is created w/in the exe) says that 'Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.' Now my db connection string in the exe is set to use Integrated Security. Within IIS, I'm using anonymous access with 'WebUser' as my username. I granted this user full control under security for the exe. Again, if I simply double click the exe and run it, all is well. But calling it from the asp page gives me the login failed response.

 - Run script on remote computer We have 10 Windows 2003 domains (1 root, 8 children, 1 grandchild) and 28 Windows 2003 Domain Controllers. company.com (2 DCs) childA.company.com (2 DCs) grandchildA.childA.company.com (4 DCs) childB.company.com (4 DCs) childC.company.com (4 DCs) childD.company.com (3 DCs) childE.company.com (3 DCs) childF.company.com (2 DCs) childG.company.com (2 DCs) childH.company.com (2 DCs) At the end of this message is a script called MasterScript. MasterScript causes each and every Domain Controller in the forest to locally run its own local copy of a second script called SlaveScript. I run MasterScript from my workstation, which is a member of ChildA.company.com, and I run it using Enterprise Admin credentials from the root domain (company.com). Everything works just fine except that in exactly 2 of the child domains (child C and child F) none of the 6 Domain Controllers will locally run their local copy of SlaveScript. When I locally log into each of the 6 problem Domain Controllers using the same Enterprise Admin credentials, I can manually run the local copy of SlaveScript and it works fine. So it seems that the childC and childF domains (or at least their DCs) are set to not allow remote script execution. What am I missing? ----------- MasterScript ------------------------- str_exeToRunRemotely = "WScript.exe " & Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\EventLogArchive\SlaveScript" & Chr(34) For int_counterI = 1 To 28 ' Connect to WMI set obj_WMIService = GetObject("winmgmts://" & ary_str_DCs(int_counterI) & "/root/cimv2") ' Obtain the Win32_Process class of object.

 - running multiple instances of CSCRIPT to go through list of computers. Hello All, I have been searching far and wide for a solution to my problem. I'm not sure if I am using the proper terms here. I am fairly familiar with VBS. Here is the question. I would like my VBscript to start multiple instances of itself and go through a list of computers I provide. Basically something similar to this (http://www.mousetrax.com/Downloads.html "Domain Report Manager ") , but much simpler. I have spent the past couple of weeks breaking down his code and connecting bits and pieces, but I am pretty overwhelmed. I read through the documentation he put together, but it only elaborated on tracking the number of instances... not how to create them. I am sure it is something simple, I just can't see it. The script I have pieced together gathers the computer accounts from the domain... Pings them.. Then runs PSEXEC against the ones that are up. I just want to speed up the process. run like 15 threads at once.. I really appreciate any info you can give me or any resources you can point me too. I really want to learn how this works.

 - trouble in connecting with wmi accross NAT Dear all, this is my scenario I need to manage some servers in the remote offices. I have a cisco pix-firewall and also the remote networks have it. A remote server ( I will call it MYSERVER ) is reachabled with the Public address 81.81.81.43 (eg.) , on the inside lan MYSERVER adress is 192.x.x.x. ( ie a private address) so a Static NAT translates the ip to private and viceversa. my computer is in the inside lan with a private address and goes out with a public address like 82.83.84.56 (eg). the server is in the same domain as the mine. I'm an Enterprise Admin. If i try to connect to this server with a wmi script, for example using the ScriptomaticV2 tool, I can't get the data. But if I add to MYSERVER the ip alias 81.81.81.43 ( the same address with it is pubblished) i can get all data, but that's a terrible workaround!!! Wich is the best solution to avoid this kind of problem? Many thanks, Sergio Tag: Check Services with no WMI Tag: 196055

 - script for temp internet files hi- i don't know anything about scripts - esp in VB. i'm not sure if i even need to do this in VB, but could someone help me? we have users who open TIFF files constantly. our problem is that this folder gets full of these files and after a while, users cannot open any TIFF files. our usual solution is to do the following manually: Microsoft Outlook uses a temporary folder to save and open the attachments. By default that folder is: C:\Documents and Settings\%USER_NAME%\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK#\ (where # is a random number). Some of the latest security updates for Windows 2000 and XP are preventing folders to be created in that folder. The solution is to use the regular TEMP folder. 1. Using REGEDIT.EXE locate the following key: My Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\10.0\Outlook\Security Note: Depending on your version you may have to modify that path after the "Office" key. You may have folders 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0, go the highest number. This is probably the version that you use. 2. Modify the Key "OutlookSecureTempFolder", by replacing "Temporary Internet Files" with "Temp". For example: OLD VALUE: C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\OLK177\ (you may have different number than 177) NEW VALUE: C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Local Settings\Temp\OLK177\ 3. Restart Microsoft Outlook. in essence, what i need to do is create a script to do this, so that we can run it before the folders get full, and we don't have to do it manually every time it happens. thanks in advance!

 - Prevent Users Executing a Script Twice Hi Everyone, Does anyone know a neat way to prevent users executing a script two or more time simultaneously? Apart from teaching them to be more patient! Ideally I'm looking for a way to make the script realise that it is already running in a previous instance and either just quit or send the user a message and then quit. Cheers, Danny....

 - RegExp and Replacing Submatches I have a value, retrieved from a recordset, that contains any number of hyperlinks to a number. For example: <a href="123456">Hi</a> <a href='334455'>Hola</a> What I need to do is parse the string, identify any such valid hyperlinks, look up each of those numbers in a database, and return a string that looks something like this: <a href="/somepage.asp">Hi</a> <a href='/anotherpage.asp'>Hola</a> Here's the VBScript/ASP code I have written so far: ======================================================== Sub ReplaceSubmatches(sInputHTML) Dim sReturnValueHTML, iCount, oRegExp, oMatches, oMatch Dim sHrefValue, sHrefNewValue sReturnValueHTML = sInputHTML iCount = 0 Set oRegExp = New RegExp oRegExp.Pattern = "href[\s]?=[\s\""\']+(.*?)[\""\']+" oRegExp.Global = True Set oMatches = oRegExp.Execute(sInputHTML) If (oMatches.Count > 0) Then For Each oMatch In oMatches If (oMatch.Submatches.Count = 1) Then iCount = iCount + 1 sHrefValue = Trim(oMatch.Submatches(0) & "") sHrefNewValue = "somevalue" & iCount If (sHrefValue <> "") AND (StrComp(sHrefValue, sHrefNewValue, 1) <> 0) Then Response.Write("Replace " & sHrefValue & " with " & sHrefNewValue & " ") '// Do something to [sReturnValueHTML] End If End If Next End If Set oMatches = Nothing Set oRegExp = Nothing Response.Write(" " & vbNewLine) Response.Write("Original Value = " & Server.HTMLEncode(sInputHTML) & " " & vbNewLine) Response.Write("New Value = " & Server.HTMLEncode(sReturnValueHTML) & " " & vbNewLine) If (StrComp(sInputHTML, sReturnValueHTML, 0) = 0) Then Response.Write("Values are identical. " & vbNewLine) End Sub ======================================================== The main reason I use a regular expression, instead of a straight Replace() statement, is that the href tags may use double-quotes (href="..") or single-quotes (href='..') to define a value. What do I need to do to the above code to replace each href value? -= Tek Boy =- Tag: Check Services with no WMI Tag: 195991

 - Copy file to folder - Script failing I am trying to check for the existence of a folder. If that folder does not exist create it then copy a file to it. If the folder already exists just copy the file. I would like to add some type of error checking in the future. I have listed my script below: strComputer = "." Dim objShell Set objShell = CreateObject("wscript.Shell") Set objWMIService = GetObject _ ("winmgmts:" & "!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") UserFolder = objshell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%userprofile%")&"\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment" Wscript.echo UserFolder Dim fso set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") If Not fso.FolderExists(UserFolder) Then fso.CreateFolder UserFolder fso.CopyFile "\\citrix01\support\hotifx\deployment.properties.*", UserFolder else fso.CopyFile "\\citrix01\support\hotifx\deployment.properties", "C:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Application Data\Sun\Java\Deployment\deployment.properties" set fso = nothing end IF Tag: Check Services with no WMI Tag: 195989

 - Is it possible to Call a Shell Application from within an HTA I am working on an HTA that will unlock our local users. Within the code I use Call Shell. Whenever i test the the HTA I get the following error: RuntimeError has Occured Line: 54 Error: Type Missmatch: 'Shell" Is it possible to call Shell from within the script? Here is a sample of what my script looks like: sub unlock(strIp, strUser) IPAddress = strIp person = strUser FirstOctets = Left(IPAddress, 6) If FirstOctets = "192.15" Then Msgbox "Calling Whitfield Unlock Program" stAppName = "C:\Scripts\p.bat " & ipname & " " & person Call Shell(stAppName, 1) I've tested the HTA without using the Call Shell and just the message box and it works. Anyone with any Ideas? Tag: Check Services with no WMI Tag: 195986

 - Problem:logon script does not run I've set a logon script path for my user as \\testserver\netlogon\1.vbs . the problem is that it does not run.my username is 1 and pass is 1. the script is OK.when the user logs on,if he/she browse to netlogon and double click 1.cmd,everything goes fine;but I do wonder whats wrong with server that makes logon script not running. I tested it on 4 different domains,win2k and 2k3 and non worked. what mistake I'm probably doing? why the logon script is not triggered? I also turned debugging on like the following article: support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;221833 but nothing meaningful I got from its log pertaining to this issue. what is my mistake?

 - problem with "shell and wait" I've been using VB6 for a few years now, but this is my first foray into VBScript. Here's the problem I'm having: I need to write a script that installs an application in unattended mode (if it does not already exist), waits for the install to finish, then installs an update to the application. For some reason, the 'true' parameter on the wshshell.run command doesn't work. On a machine which does NOT have the application installed, the install starts - it should run about 5-10 minutes. Almost immediately, the update starts. I need it to wait until the application install finishes. Here's the code -- the msgbox lines are there for testing/development purposes only; they will be removed when I get this debugged. All help/advice/suggestions will be gratefully accepted. Thanks -- Carl ' SCRIPT STARTS HERE msgbox "Starting XYZ install process" dim ws Set ws = wscript.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") dim WshShell Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") ' is XYZ installed? If not, install it in unattended mode. if not ws.fileexists("C:\Program files\xyzView\xyzView.exe") then ' the last flag is for "shell and wait"; true halts execution, false continues Return = WshShell.Run("\\BOZO\common\XYZ\setup.exe /s", 1, true) end if msgbox "XYZ install complete" ' apply the XYZ update to this machine Return = WshShell.Run("\\BOZO\common\XYZ\mv31update.exe /s", 1, true) msgbox "XYZ update complete" Tag: Check Services with no WMI Tag: 195973

Create a script to read the value from the registry.
