    - wireless I need some guidance in deploying preferred networks using vbscript . I have a script that add a ssid and the other settings to the registry, but i cannot see it in "prefered networks". This script should activate the checkbox "Let windows manage...".

    - HOWTO: Raise C# event and handle in VBScript The event SomeEvent() is raised and handled in VB6 fine. Using this exact same code and using VBScript with the CreateObject call causes an error in the c# code. When using VBScript, I get a 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' on the line SomeEvent(). I am positive the m_nSomeProperty = nValue; line executes. How can I get this working from VBScript? Here's the code: using System; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; namespace ComInterop { public delegate void SomeEventHandler(); [ Guid("F8E81A5A-BB37-49CC-9681-7D4FE52936B3"), InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIDispatch) ] public interface ICComInteropEvents { [DispId(1)] void SomeEvent(); } [ Guid("97C8501B-35DE-48CA-BECC-B980D08226F4"), InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsDual) ] public interface ICComInterop { [DispId(2)] void SomeMethod( int nValue ); [DispId(3)] int SomeProperty{ get; set; } } [ Guid("10EBC493-D2FD-4723-9F8B-F593586ED9B7"), ProgId("ComInterop.CComInterop"), ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None), ComSourceInterfaces(typeof(ICComInteropEvents)) ] public class CComInterop : ICComInterop { public CComInterop() : base() { } private int m_nSomeProperty = 0; public event SomeEventHandler SomeEvent; public void SomeMethod( int nValue ) { m_nSomeProperty = nValue; /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // // object reference not set to an object error occurs here // ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// SomeEvent(); } public int SomeProperty { get{ return m_nSomeProperty; } set{ m_nSomeProperty = value; } } } } And the VBScript code: Option Explicit ' ========================================================================== ' Implementation ' ' ========================================================================== Dim objReceive Dim bDone On error Resume Next bDone = false WScript.Echo "CreateObject" Set objReceive = CreateObject("ComInterop.CComInterop") if Err.Number <> 0 then WScript.Echo "Error: CreateObject: " & Err.Description else objReceive.SomeMethod(7) if Err.Number <> 0 then WScript.Echo "Error: Setting SomeMethod: " & Err.Description else WScript.Sleep 3000 end if end if objReceive = nothing WScript.Echo "Program Over" ' ========================================================================== Sub objReceive_SomeEvent() WScript.Echo "Message: " & objReceive.SomeProperty bDone = true End Sub -- Dan Sikorsky, MSCS BSCE BAB Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179389

    - vbs script is blocked by anti-virus software After all of you helped me a lot with my last question (thanks again, everything worked great!), I'm again without any idea! Now I have my complete .vbs script that tests the installed Windows version and the installed Adobe Reader Version. I've burned it to a CD with a Autorun.inf that looks like this: [autorun] shellexecute = cscript.exe VersionCheck.vbs My problem: On almost every computer the script is blocked as a 'dangerous virus' by the anti-virus software. What can I do? I thought of maybe converting it to exe and as I googled that seems to be good solution if you have VB what I don't have! Is there an other way to make the script run? It won't be send by email it will just be on a CD! Any hint? Thanky you very much! Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179381

    - onFileDateChange handler from a COM object? Is there any COM way, besides polling, that will let me know when a specific file's date has changed (I know that winternals is supposed to have a filemon app, but if possible I'd like to do this using already available objects/code)? Motivation. I'm developing an application which stays in the background and does its thing. If I rewrite (that is to say, edit) my app, I'd like to have the current running instance exit and a new instance start up (actually, the order will be reversed, to ensure the revised app is at least breathing). That's it. One save from me should be enough to cause a reload. Isn't there a nice event driven way for the running app to be notified when its own file has changed? - maybe some file system object has an event whenever any file in its directory changes? Thanks for any tips, Csaba Gabor from Vienna Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179379

    - Execute code before closing script Hello I have a script that runs 24/24 7/7 on a server in an constant loop gathering information into a DB. What i would like (and don't know how) is to execute code to 'compact & repair' the database every time the server shutsdown/reboots. So, the question is, is there any way to do this with scripts, that is, to bypass the endless loop, executes final code and shuts itself down without being forced? Suggestions/links are welkome.

    - Can't read a registry key I've created a template script to read IP addresses from a list, then carry out simple tasks such as read RAM, Host name, etc. which works absolutely fine for whatever info I'm trying to gather and send to an output file. Basically I'm just cut and pasting the main body of a script into my template. I've now tried to adapt the script to read a registry key, but the script returns no value for the registry key. The script is as follows - On Error Resume Next Const INPUT_FILE_NAME = "Addresses.txt" Const FOR_READING = 1 Const HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001 Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002 Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(INPUT_FILE_NAME, FOR_READING) Do While objfile.AtEndofStream <> True strComputers = objFile.Readline Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _ & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputers & "\root\cimv2") Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & _ strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv") Set cPingResults = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_PingStatus WHERE Address = '" + strComputers + "'") For Each oPingResult In cPingResults If oPingResult.StatusCode = 0 Then WScript.Echo VbCrLf & strComputers & " responded to ping." Set colCompSystems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem") For Each objCompSystem In colCompSystems WScript.Echo "Host Name: " & LCase(objCompSystem.Name) Next strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\TrendMicro\PC-cillinNTCorp\CurrentVersion\Misc." strValueName = "PatternVer" oReg.GetDWORDValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,dwvalue Wscript.Echo "Current Pattern Version - " & dwvalue Else WScript.Echo VbCrLf & strComputers & " did not respond to ping *Target Possibley Down.!*." End If Next Loop objFile.Close IP address and Host name are displayed fine, and will also echo the "current pattern version" line, but gives no value. I created a simpler version of script to run on my local machine which goes - Const HKEY_CURRENT_USER = &H80000001 Const HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE = &H80000002 strComputer = "." Set oReg=GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & _ strComputer & "\root\default:StdRegProv") strKeyPath = "SOFTWARE\TrendMicro\PC-cillinNTCorp\CurrentVersion\Misc." strValueName = "PatternVer" oReg.GetDWORDValue HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,strKeyPath,strValueName,dwvalue Wscript.Echo "Current Pattern Version - " & dwvalue This returns the value that I'm looking for no problem, so I'm confident that the code is ok. I'm guessing it's something to do with syntax as opposed to code. Can anyone help? Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179374

    - Chart Type Info Hello everybody, Posting for the first time. I am using Vb Scripting to generate some charts based of data from SQLServer. I was able to get all the charts displayed properly. However, I have a question with regards to way how the lines in the charts are being displayed. I will try to explain my problem using excel terminology. Lets say for the grid of values shown below, Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 12 34 08 45 19 23 33 17 53 23 11 09 It plots the graph normally. But if the values are like this: Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec 12 34 08 45 23 33 17 23 11 09 The places where the values are not there, the chart is defaulting to zero, which I don't want. I want the line chart to end at April and then continue from June and end at August, then continue from October. I tried several different chart type values, but didn't get the functionality I was looking for. Does anyone have any ideas to resolve this issue?

    - Crypt API dll in VBScript ASP I found this bit of code from www.allapi.net on how to use the windows api to do some basic encryption. It works great so I created a dll of the code so I could use it in different applications. So far it has been working great with no problem, until now. I tried to use the dll from a vbscript asp page to encrypt some information that is being passed to the server. I call the dll just like any other dll set variable=server.createobject("DLLName.ClassName") but when I try to use the dll it never returns the encrypted data. I have put in code into the dll to log that it gets initialized and nothing shows in the log. I also created another dll, very simple with only one function, and it works fine. I have this feeling that it might be security related because the dll calls the advapi.dll and kernel in some of its function calls. I have set permissions for IUSR_machine to have full access to the entire machine, is there something else I should try? Any help any of you fine folks out there can give would be greatly appretiated. Thanks, Adam Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179350

    - Help with InvokeVerbEx needed The following is a direct quote for the Windows 2000 Scripting Guide <begin quote> Be aware that verbs always function in exactly the same way they do when clicked in Windows Explorer. If you right-click a file and select Open, the file automatically opens. If you select Delete, however, a confirmation box is displayed before the file is deleted. This same confirmation box appears if you attempt to delete any object using InvokeVerbEx. For example, using the Delete verb on a file results in a dialog box similar to the one shown in Figure 11.8. By comparison, right-clicking a file and selecting Print does not display a dialog box; instead, the file is automatically printed to the default printer. If you use InvokeVerbEx to print a file programmatically, that file is automatically printed to the default printer without displaying a dialog box of any kind. </end quote> And here is the sample code: TargetFolder = "C:\Logs" set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") set objFolder = objShell.Namespace(TargetFolder) set colItems = objFolder.Items for each objItem in colItems wscript.echo objItem.Name objItem.InvokeVerbEx("Print") next Contrary to what is printed a dialog box DOES appear for "every" file print. I can not seem to find any information on the optional parameter. Does anyone know of a way to make InvokeVerbEx perform as documented - I want to invoke the print verb on a file without any user intervention.

    - Binding to a user principal name in ad Hi all: I am looking for a way to bind to a user in AD by using the User Principal Name (Which I believe is the field on the Account tab Called User Login Name). Now I am using the code below which correctly binds to the AD user if the Display name is the same as the UPN but it will not bind if the Display name is set to last name, first name. When the script runs correctly it then updates the description field for the user, disables it and then moves it to a deletions OU, but if I cannot bind to the user then it will not do all of this stuff. EX1 Display Name = aa123 UPN = aa123 works correctly binds and script continues if user enters aa123 user into code below EX2 Display name = Doe, John UPN = aa123 does not find or bind to the user if you enter aa123 - script error EX3 Display name = Doe, John UPN-aa123 does find the user if you enter doe, john but the script will not update the description field for the user or the rest of the . Set objUser = GetObject _ ("LDAP://cn="& getuser &",OU=users,OU=MANAGED DESKTOP SERVICES,OU=HHH,DC=aa,DC=abc,DC=com") where getuser is an input from a html form Any suggestions on how to bind to the UPN as most of our users have ad id that is not their last name, first name.

    - regex problem Hi, as I couldn't find any newsgroup specialized on regex, I hope somebody here can help me. I have the following kind of strings: file/start.asp#en:test>top file/start.asp?load=http:/www.test.com>top file/test.asp?load=http://www.test.com#en:test;de:test>top With the following regex I can extract the things I need (everything between 'en:'..and the last ; or 'top' or the uri's: ((.*)[(/|\\)])(.*\.asp)(\?load=(.*)#)?((.*;en:(.*));)?(>(.*)$)? But additionally the whole thing can start with http:// or ftp://, e.g. http://www.start.com?load=http:/www.test.com>top http://www.start.com?load=http:/www.test.com#en:test;>top ... But when I modify it like this: (http://.*|ftp://.*)|((.*)[(/|\\)])(.*\.asp)(\?load=(.*)#)?((.*;en:(.*));)?(>(.*)$)? it only matches the whole string and doesn't split it.

    - Change the pwdLastSet value I need to change the pwdLastSet attribute on accounts in Active Directory. I found this script which will change the value to 0 which means the user must change their password at next log on. But we are implementing a new pwd policy to force users to change their pwd after 180 days. Most of our users pwd's are older than that and we don't want them all expiring on that day. So, I need to be able to bulk set the pwdLastSet value to %today's date%. Here is my idea: set oUser = GetObject("LDAP://cn=user,ou=test,dc=domain,dc=com") oUser.Put "pwdLastSet", CLng(127703193192000000) oUser.Setinfo (We reverse engineered the Integer 8 number to be approx Sept 1, 2005, hence the value 127703193192000000) But when I run this I get an error Overflow: 'CLng' Has anyone ever done this before?

    - Export list of users to excel speadsheet Hi, I am a newbie to scripting so be gentle with me ;-) I have been asked to export a list of all users from our domain into an excel spreadsheet. Data must include the following: Logon name, Email Address, Telephone Number. Our users are in multiple OUs depending on their office location so the script must search the whole domain. Can you help? Please highlight the parts which need to be modified... Many thanks, Don Pedro Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179307

    - Check if registry registry key exists and then add values to runonce Hi all, I have done some scripting but I am no expert. I need to check if a registry key (not a string value) exists on a client computer. If the key exists it should add some value to the HKCU runonce hive. If the key does exists it should do nothing and run the rest in the script. How do I do that? Bye Mariette Knap www.smallbizserver.net Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179301

    - Moving the Windows Taskbar via script Hi I was just wondering if anyone has any idea of how to move the windows taskbar through vbscript (or any other non-manual method for that matter). The reason for this is that I have a friend who logs on to a university network. Every time he logs on, the display settings are defaulted to have the taskbar docked on the bottom of the screen. He prefers to have it docked on the top of the screen. No personal display preferences are saved between sessions. I have been scouring google for a few days now and I'm running out of ideas. Any help is appreciated, Tim Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179296

    - Make a html Drop Down list behave like a vb Combo Box Hi, I am currently working on an Intranet based payroll tool, which interfaces with our Payroll system, I am currently working on an expenses claim screen, based on ASP, HTML and vbscript (we have a totally IE based client base) I have been asked to make some drop down lists behave much the same as a Win32/vb type combo box, however I am struggling with this. I want the drop down list to filter the contents much the same as a combo box. for example if a user wants to find the payroll number 001934, they would simply type it into the drop down list and it moves its way to this value rather than the way drop down lists work in a browser ie. the brower would move to the first number starting with zero, then to the next number starting with zero, then the first number starting with 1 etc. Any help would be greatly appreciated with this. If a Javascript solution is all you have then please let me have it, I am at the point of desperation now. Thanks to everyone in anticipation of your help Simon Tag: Elevate user during logon process Tag: 179295

    - CPU, Increase Percentage Is there a way to dictate how much of the processor's time is given to a script? My scripts normally do a lot of database accessing, so it's not uncommon to pin the CPU. I have one scrpt that when run, stays down around 1 or 2% of the processor usage. At that rate it takes 20 minutes to run. Any ideas on how to get it more of the CPU? Note: During this time, the System Idle Process is runing above 90%.

    - http://username:password@domain I have made the changes in my registry that are documented in many places, and in Internet Explorer 6 the command http://username:password@domain now works just fine. However, I now want to open the same page with a script, going thru the InternetExplorer object and Navigate (or whatever is appropriate). My problem is that Navigate will not accept http://username:password@domain as a url, which is I suppose not surprising. MY QUESTION, THEN, IS HOW DO I OPEN THIS PAGE? i suspect that I have to do something with ... As Variant, but I do not understand the syntax or the semantics. Thanks in advance for any help.

    - truncate data from 1 million to 1 dollar using formatCurrency/CCur functions? I want to ask what are the possiblities to truncate data from 1 million dollars to 1 dollar by using formatCurrency and CCur functions? The ASP page has code <%= formatCurrency(rs(14)) %>, the database rs(14) is 100000000. But when it displays it in the screen, it shows $1.00 with code <%= formatCurrency(rs(14)) %> There is another place with code using CCur and formatCurrency together, i am not sure if this is ok. <% amt_of_deposits = amt_of_deposits + cCur(rRes("natl_trust_tran_amt")) %> <%=formatCurrency(amt_of_deposits)%> This problem is so strange to me, I have no idea whats going on. please advise. thanks!!

    - Has anyone played with this script? http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/scriptshop/default.mspx#EKAA Has anyone played with this script? http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/scriptshop/default.mspx#EKAA It works really well but I don't like the approach. This approach requires the administrator to maintain a list of exe's which are known spyware. There are several problems with this approach. For example (From Symantec.com) When Spyware.Perfect installer is executed, it performs the following actions: 1. Creates the following files: " [FILE NAME].exe " [FILE NAME]r.exe " [FILE NAME]un.exe " [FILE NAME]vw.exe " [FILE NAME]hk.dll " [FILE NAME]i.dll " [FILE NAME]wb.dll Since we don't know the value of [FILE NAME], we wouldn't be able to add this to the list unless we could use the old DOS wildcards like ????????r.exe and such. We would still need to know how long "FILE NAME" is to apply the appropriate number of ??????'s. Also, new strains of spyware will slip through the cracks unless the list is updated and there doesn't seem to be a good single source to check. So, why wouldn't it be possible to create a "white list" of known services and processes which should be mostly static (only upgrades and such would need to force a revision) and ONLY allow those processes to run. For me to do it I would need a list of processes from Microsoft or do the inventory myself, then add in the exe's of the processes I know I will need from Symantec, Scansoft, Adobe, etc. The white list could also be secured with Software restriction policies in Windows which would prevent malicious code from taking on the name of known Windows services which is another weak point of the current script's approach. I don't know too much about scripting (I barely know how to cut and paste code to get it to work) but would the logic need to be changed a lot to make this idea work? Is there a down-side I am not thinking of? I believe Windows can be secured to the point where you would never need an anti-spyware product or even a script like this one. If I was building a new network from the ground-up, I would set things up this way. It would only take careful selection of software which does not require admin rights on machines (something my current migration to a secured environment is lacking until I flush out programs like Adobe Capture and QuickBooks 2005). The recent flack over the status of Claria and Microsoft really opened my eyes about this because I want to maintain control over my stuff. Adding anti-spyware to the mix to try and do my job for me isn't going to get the job done is we are arguing over what is spyware and what is not. EULA or not, I don't want certain programs running in my organization. This includes freecell.exe and sol.exe and anything Claria/Gator related.

I would like to know if anyone has had success elevating a user during the
logon process and if so what they used to elevate that user?

I would like to be able to elevate a user to admin rights, install one or
several programs and then remove the admin rights.

Anyone have any ideas as to which direction would be best?

Thanks
Tom

you may want to try setting your login scripts through group policies
to run synchronosly so that while they are running they are running as
sytem. The have your script run your installation.
Of course you could set up the installation through a GP, that installs
at the computer level and has full rights, no need to advance the user
to local admin to do that.

Thomas,
I may be out of my league here, but just after reading your post, I
made my daily visit to the MS Script center and found this - I didn't
read the entire article, but it looks like it might be what you're
after.
