    - VB Script to map network dirve through HTML link Hello - I have a simple web page for system administration and I want to embed a link on the page that will map to the root drive of the system (i.e. //Servername/c$) - when I add the line href=file://///ServerName/ c$ - and then click on the link I get a browser window with "Server cannot be found" - When I open a new browser and just type in //Servername/c$ I get the prompt for username/password... Why will this not work through the link but manually through the browser.. thoughts!!?? Tag: Copying Wscript.echo to the clipboard Tag: 215686

    - Converting IP Address to 9 Digit Decimal Number for msRADIUSFramed I am having to enter a static IP address for all of our VPN users, which is about 1,000. I am not a math person, but when I convert my IP address to a decimal number, it is a 10 digit number which is 1 digit to many to be added to msRADIUSFramedIPAddress attribute. I receive an error, it only takes up to 9 digits. Somehow Active Directory converts the decimal number to a 9 digit negitive number, I have no clue on how to get the 9 digit negitive number, If you already have a vbscript to convert an IP address to msRADIUSFramedIPAddress format. That would be awsome. But just even able to convert the 10 digit positive number to a 9 digit negitive number would be great! Thank you for you help!! Don My IP Address is 172.29.255.130 Converts to: 2887647106 (BUT it is 10 digits and can not be entered, even manually with ADSI Edit) Active Directory Converts the Number to a negitive value. This is where I am stuck. From ADSI Edit: msRADIUSFramedIPAddress = -1407320190 In Microsoft Forum Example Script to modify the attribute they used IP 10.2.0.210 which converts to: 167903442 (It is a 9 digit number and will work!)

    - Clearing the MRU programs from the start menu I'd like to clear the MRU programs from the XP start menu (the ones that get added "below the line", not the ones pinned above the line) with a script, but I can't even find where they're stored. I see there's the verb "Remove from this list" associated with each entry, but if I can't find the container to see the contents I can't invoke the verb. If I list the Items in the special folder START_MENU the only thing that shows up is Programs. Maybe that's not even the way to go about it. Any ideas?

    - Special Folder Shell Namespace number vs title I can obtain a Shell Application Folder object associated with a Windows Special Folder with code like the following: iNameSpace = 26 Set oShApp = CreateObject("Shell.Application") Set oShFolder = oShApp.NameSpace(iNameSpace) MsgBox oShFolder.Title On my WXP SP2 system, for numbers in the range 0 to 61, most numbers result in a shell folder object with a unique title. My system has 39 unique titles. Some titles, like 'Application Data', and 'Desktop', are associated with namespaces of more than one number. For example, 26, 28, and 35 all result in shell folders with the title 'Application Data'. Question: Are all the shell folders with the same title identical, having the same properties, methods, events, etc, as well as the same contents? If not, how can I find out the differences between them? Thanks, -Paul Randall Here is a short script to list the special folder namespace titles and the numbers associated with them: Set dNameSpaces = GetNameSpaces() sMsg = "" For Each sNameSpace In SortNet(dNameSpaces.Keys) sMsg = sMsg & sNameSpace & vbTab & vbTab & _ dNameSpaces(sNameSpace) & vbCrLf Next 'sNameSpace MsgBox "Namespace Title count = " & UBound(dNameSpaces.Keys) + 1 & _ vbCrLf & sMsg Function GetNameSpaces() 'Return a dictionary containing namespace titles and associated numbers.

    - Error 800A0046 when trying to copy file locally Hey first post here, also new to scripting. I'm trying to create a script that reads a text file taking the path from that file and then copying the file from the path in the text file to a specific destination. I've got the reading of the text file down and everything seems to be ok, except when it goes to copy the file, when it tries to copy the file I get a Permission Denied message, this is a local copy from root of C to a temp folder and I'm admin on the machine so I can't understand why it would be a permission issue. Here is the script: Const ForReading = 1 Dim SourceServer Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile _ ("c:\test.txt", ForReading) strNextLine = objTextFile.Readline arrServiceList = Split(strNextLine , ",") Wscript.Echo "Server name: " & arrServiceList(0) set SourceServer = objFSO.GetFile(arrServiceList(0)) Wscript.Echo "Copy " & SourceServer SourceServer.Copy("C:\temp\test") Any suggestions are much apprciated.

    - Slow logon when homeshare not available Situation: we divide our network for students and employees with VLANs. All computers for Education are placed in a student vlan, all administrative computers are placed in an employee vlan. When an employee logs on to a computer, which is in the student vlan, he can't access administrative resources, so he can't connect to his homedrive / homeshare. When an employee logs on to a computer in the employee vlan he will succesfully access administrative resources, the homeshare is succesfully connected. The problem is that logging on to a computer which is in the educational vlan causes a delay of 90 seconds because the server is not available. We sniffed the network and have seen that there is 3 times a ping request before the logon will proceed. We removed the homedrive and homepath setting in the AD user object and connected the homedrive based on subnet with a script, this solved the problem. But this causes problems with laptops users (folder redirection.) We want to workaround this problem without changing homedrive and homepath settings in the user object. Thanks in advance.

    - Using SWbemLocator.ConnectServer with non-domain credentials Ok, so I have a scripting issue that I canâ??t find a solution for. Iâ??ve tried everything I can possibly think of, and have searched endlessly for an answer on all the forums/newsgroups. Iâ??m trying to use the SWbemLocator.ConnectServer method with vbscript to connect to a Windows 2003 server remotely and gather WMI data. All servers are Windows 2003 Server. ServerA = workgroup server Iâ??m trying to run the script from. ServerB = workgroup server Iâ??m trying to connect to. I can do this fine, as long as ServerB is connected to a domain, and I use domain credentials to authenticate when activating the ConnectServer method. However, if ServerB is part of a workgroup and I try to use the local admin credentials of ServerB in the ConnectServer method, I get â??Access is Deniedâ?? with an error code of 80070005 (DCOM Error regarding incorrect username/password). On ServerB, in the security event logs, it appears that only the local credentials of ServerA are being passed, as the â??DOMAINâ?? parameter is populated with the name of ServerA. Iâ??ve tried adding the name of the ServerB to the beginning of the strUser, or in the â??NTLMDomain:â?? setting so that it specifies the remote user account, but it still fails. This also happens if ServerB is in a domain if I try to use the local admin credentials of ServerB to connect, rather than the domain credentials. Iâ??ve scoured the newsgroups and spoken with other administrators. I get some solutions that come close to describing my exact issue, but nothing that solves the problem. Any ideas? Thanks!

    - Mass switch DNS script - fail over/disaster recovery Does anyone have a script for failing over DNS? I wrote one, but I'm curious to see if anyone else out there has done it better. What I'm looking for is a script that reads from a CSV and will switch A and CNAME records. As the spreadsheet is setup now, it lists SERVER, FUNCTION, PRODUCTION HOST, DR HOST, PROD A, DR A, PROD CNAME, DR CNAME, etc. The script is run and told to switch to production or fail over, and then changes all the settings as need be. I'm wondering if there's a similar one out there - they're looking for something more bullet proof. Thanks. Tag: Copying Wscript.echo to the clipboard Tag: 215582

But when I modified the script to query previous logoned Local Account, it worked. Note: The function I called is "Win32_UserAccount" Script used in my client migration task =============================================================================== Set objNetwork = CreateObject("Wscript.Network") strComputerName = objNetwork.ComputerName strLogonUser = objNetwork.UserName ap01UserName = trim(cstr(InputBox("Please input AP01 User Account:","Type User Account"))) strDomain = "AP01" Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputerName & "\root\cimv2") Set objAccount = objWMIService.Get _ ("Win32_UserAccount.Name='" & ap01UserName & "',Domain='" & strDomain & "'") ==================================================================================== I think there would be something wrong with the client's WMI lib. To verify my suspection, I did the following test. 1).Use a sample script to enumerate all the local account which has logoned this client. 2).It seems really really strange, on two XP clients when I run the sample script to query current or previous logon accounts, it only return me Local Accounts, all the Domain Accounts cann't be queried. 3).But when I run this script on most other XP clients, it return both Local and Domain Accounts which have logoned this client.

    - Need help finding local path to downloaded graphic Note: I have 100% total control over my environment. All users are using IE 7 and the application server is in the IE Trusted Security zone with all functionality defaulted to "Enable" in the IE custom settings for the zone. The only restriction is that all network file access must use http://, and not a UNC path. (Okay, so I guess that isn't 100% but its close.) I have a website that includes photos taken of current construction projects. When a reporting page is loaded via IE one of the page elements is the project's photo. I need to know if there is any way to find the c:\my\path\here\.... location of that file on the local hard disk. I know it is in the temporary internet files and I already know the exact name of the file, e.g. proj2007.014.jpg, but IE sets up subdirectories. Alternately, if there is any way to save the file to a known location then I can just access it from there but I can't figure out how to do that. I'd prefer not to have to have the user confirm the file download but if that is required for security reasons that is okay as long as it solves the problem. Any input is appreciated.

    - Listing more columns in "Recover Deleted Items" window As a matter of form, I am not talking about the Inbox\Deleted Items folder here, but the recoverable deleted items on the Exchange server (tools > recover deleted items...). When recovering emails from "Sent items" (click Sent Items, Tools > Recover Deleted Items...) I can just see the columns Subject, Deleted On, From and Received. I would like to show the column "To"-column as well, since all emails are from me in there, thus it's hard to locate an old mail with an unknown subject. I know it's probably not possible (I've tried clicking around), so I wondered if anybody know of 3rd party tools and/or scripts (vbscripts etc) that can manage the Recover Deleted Items folders? -- -- HAL07, Engineering Services, Norway Tag: Copying Wscript.echo to the clipboard Tag: 215551

    - move folders based on their date This sounded really easy to me when I was tasked with doing it, but now I'm bogged down and have run out of ideas. Here's a description of what I'm trying to do: 1. On drive X, look for all folders starting with the string "delivery", followed by a random number. There are also other folders in X called other things that do not begin with "delivery". 2. For each of the folders starting with "delivery", if the date of the folder equals yesterday's date, move it from X to a destination folder (X:\archive\#yesterday's_date#\, for example). Otherwise don't move it. It sounds easy, and I can do step #1 easy enough, but stumble with the date issue in step #2. I just realized one way I could solve this would be to get rid of all the existing "delivery" folders, then just create a script to move all the "delivery" folders and schedule that script to run at 12:01 a.m. each day, but that seems a bit like the blunt force way of solving the issue, and I'm betting/hoping there's a more elegant solution.

This works from the cmd line login as the user. However I will nod restore the key from the script at logoff. All other parts of the script work. the specific line that does not work is: WshShell.Exec ("%comspec% /c reg RESTORE HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft ""%USERPROFILE%\explorerPoliciesBackup.hiv""") FYI Wshell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell") I have even tried to use the reg delete command with no success. The user is in the administrators group. This happens locally as well as through terminal services. Thanks in advance Tag: Copying Wscript.echo to the clipboard Tag: 215537

    - Copy to multiple folders Maybe someone can help me out. I have the script below that replicates from source to target just fine. It was nice enough on Michael to post it on this MS newsgroup a while back. I've done a few changes to it like a small amount of logging but nothing major. But I'm wanting to change it so that it will replicate to multipe targets i.e. setting the TARGET to just C:\App and have to replicate to all sub folders excluding the Source folder and it already has the logic to exclude folders. Or maybe I need to go about this in a different direction. Any help would be great.

    - html input forms??? using a series of input boxes on a form the text in the box is always highlighted when tabbing forward or backward. sometimes i would prefer the text NOT be highlighted, for instance when the user just needs to verify the text or other times when the text needs to be appended. in either case if the text is highlighted a single keystroke wipes it out. does anyone know how to stop this highlighting? I have tried using a range to set the cursor to the end and setting the input value equal to itsself, both work but the highlight ALWAYS flashes first and it looks sloppy. any help or ideas greatly appreciated!!!

    - Keyboard Layout/Default Input Language/Language Toolbar - Current I am stumped and hope someone else has come across this: I am trying to change the Default Input Language to the Latin America keyboard layout. I have changed the Regional Options to Spanish (Mexico) by changing the registry when the user first logs in and I have changed the HKU\ & HKCU\ Keyboard Layout\Preload to 0000080A (Latin America) so that at the CTRL-ALT-DEL screen the keyoard layout is correct. My problem is that the under Regional and Language Options -> Languages Tab -> Details -> Text Services and Input Languages Settings tab does not list the Latin America keyboard option and the Language bar needs to be active. The script runs at login and changes the Regional Option (time, date, etc.) for the user, but I need to address the other items. Anyone have any ideas?

Can i do something like that in a vbs file? Thanks and sorry for the stupid question, i'd like to read some document about that :) Tag: Copying Wscript.echo to the clipboard Tag: 215473

    - Home drive permissions fro Admin adn user only. Hello all, I have a script that has been taken and modified to make a users creation sript for our environment. It is to create the user and its home share(which it does), and supposed to set the permissions on the share for the Administrator and the User to Full controll. The permissions are not being applied. Here is what I am hoping for from theis script. I want it to pop up a box asking for username desired, First name, Last name, and department. It does all of those. And then in the background it creates a folder on our server in a specifice directory, which it does. Then Iwould like it to go in and break inheritance and give only the user and the admin full control oveer the share. This it doesn't I have been working on this for about a week and don't really understand the ACE,CACLS,DACLS commands. Can some one please look over this and see where I went wrong? Thank you for any imput you can provide 'Option Explicit Dim WshShell, fso, objOU, objUser Set WSHShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set

Morning all,

I need to take a wScript.echo and copy it to the clipboard. The
script I supplies my variables and outputs to a wscript.echo for me.
Now I want to copy waht is put what is displayed in the wscript.echo
into the clipboard so I can paste is into other apps. Is this
possible with vbs? and if so how. I have seen alot around that is
close, but all are looking to use IE to copy to the clipboard. Is
this the only way? any input would be appreciated.
