    - trying to achieve automation, need assistance I have created a deployment script to automate desktop deployment. I have enabled autologon using the local administrator account... But I am trying to figure out the best way to get the script to run at startup... Now, I know vbscript has a GPO interface but I have no idea how I would disable the deployment.vbs script from running at logon. I could put the script in the startup folder, but how would I remove it automatically? I couldn't delete the script while the script is running could i? Any thoughts?

    - DateAdd Bug? Small VBS to demonstrate an issue I have with the VBS DateAdd function: msgbox CDate("23/10/2005 22:15:00") = DateAdd("h", 22, DateAdd("n", 15, CDate("23/10/2005"))) This pops up a message box with False in it. Any suggestion as to why? This returns true: msgbox CDate("23/10/2005 22:15:00") = CDate(CStr(DateAdd("h", 22, DateAdd("n", 15, CDate("23/10/2005"))) (UK Locale!)

    - 70 permission denied in upload file I have a web application in asp that have to upload files. If I put the upload directory into C:\ directory I have no problem, but if I put it into the C:\InetPub\wwwroot directory it give me the error in the subject. I've set all the permissions on the upload directory (read, write, execute, ecc.) and also on the wwwroot directory, but evidently there is some permission that stop the writing of the uploaded file. I've also attempt to share the directory both as web share that as net share, but nothing to do. I have Win XP with IIS 5.1. Someone can help me?

    - sending an email of log file that is created in new folder each time Hello, I am new to this forum and to scripting, and was hoping I could find some help. I want to email off a log file that is created each week. It puts the report into the following path (and the html log file name is always random): c:\Nov2005\Week1\log0011029273.html The month and week folders are created new each week, so I cant use a static file location. I have the following script that works fine for static files: -------------------------------------------- Set objMessage = CreateObject("CDO.Message") objMessage.Subject = "Example CDO Message" objMessage.Sender = "sc@co.com" objMessage.To = "sc@co.com" objMessage.TextBody = "This is some sample message text." objMessage.AddAttachment "c:\Nov2005\Week1\log0011029273.html" '==This section provides the configuration information for the remote SMTP server. '==Normally you will only change the server name or IP. objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing") = 2 'Name or IP of Remote SMTP Server objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver") = "mail.co.com" 'Server port (typically 25) objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _ ("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport") = 25 objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Update '==End remote SMTP server configuration section== objMessage.Send ----------------------------------------------------------- ..but every time this report is run, it creates a new path to the new report file...so this has to be the current C:\month\week\randomlogfilename.html Any help in constructing this would be much appreciated. -- sc48226 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Posted via http://www.codecomments.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182785

    - error connecting to Active Directory via LDAP from ASP/VBScript pg I'm rather new to the world of VBScript/ASP. I'm a *nix-head and have been programming in PHP for years. I'm rather frustrated because I do not know how to go about trouble-shooting an error I'm receiving in a script I'm trying to implement to authenticate a user against AD. The script is as follows (found it in these usenet groups): <%@ Language=VBScript %> <% Dim username, password, ldapserver, ldap_path ' Construct the FQDN ldap_path = "LDAP://cn=##,DC=ourcollege,DC=edu" ' Get the ldap server name into local variable by replacing the special ' charcter with the username ldapserver = Replace(ldap_path,"##",Request.Form("username")) Response.Write("<b>username:</b> " & Request.Form("username") & "<br />") Response.Write("<b>ldapserver:</b> " & ldapserver & "<br />") ' Parse the username from the ldap path username = Mid(ldapserver, InStr(8, ldapserver, "/") + 1) Response.Write("<b>username:</b> " & username & "<br />") ' Get the password Password = Request.Form("Password") ' Connect to the LDAP Directory Set dso = GetObject("LDAP:") ' Validate the User Name and Password Set objUser = dso.OpenDSObject(ldapserver, username, password, 0) 'Response.Write("<b>lobjuser.class:</b> " & lobjUser.class & "<br />") 'Response.Write("<b>err.description:</b> " & err.description & "<br />") ' Exit with error - Incorrect username & password - return to login.asp page 'If Err.number<>0 Then ' Response.Write "<b>Result:</b> Authentication Failure.<br />" ' Set lobjUser = nothing ' Set dso = nothing 'Else ' Response.Write "<b>Result:</b> Success.<br />" 'End If 'To get information from the LDAP directory you need to know the "attributes" 'available and then you can reference them. Ex: 'strUserName = lobjUser.Get("cn")> %> The above code generates the very unhelpful error: error '8007054b' /ldap_auth_02.asp, line 29 Is there a system log which will give me more information on the error which occured? Is there something I can response.write to my browser which might give me a more useful error message? I recently put together a PHP script to connect to AD via LDAP. I had to bind to AD using a username (RDN?) and password before I could perform a query. (I apologize if I'm not using the appropriate terminology.) I then passed AD our Base DN, filter, and search terms. I can't find any documentation on this. My ultimate goal is to authenticate a user with their AD credentials.

    - Server.CreateObject Excel permissions Hello All I am trying to port some ASP code over to a windows 2003 server. It works fine on my "dev" windows 2000 server. I get this error on the 2003 server: Error Type: Server object, ASP 0178 (0x80070005) The call to Server.CreateObject failed while checking permissions. Access is denied to this object. Here is the line of code associated with the error: set objExcel = Server.CreateObject("Excel.Application") I have Excel 2000 installed on both machines. From what I can tell I have set permissions the same on both machines. I set and checked the permissions on the actually Excel.exe file is that the correct file that CreateObject uses? What else should I be checking/setting permissions on so that this will work on the 2003 server? Thanks in advance. Adam Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182776

    - window.setInterval with negative delay time - Windows XP SP1 & SP2 Hello all, I have noticed (but haven't really proven) that setting the delay time in the window.setInterval function to -1 (or any negative value) has different effect on client machines with Windows XP SP1 versus SP2. window.setInterval( "AsyncUpdate();", -1 ); For Windows XP with SP2, it is working as expected (i.e. the timer is treated as if it's turned OFF). However with SP1, I suspected that the function behaves oppositely, i.e. the function within the timer gets called continuously and indefinitely, creating an endless loop and an extremely heavy load on the CPU. If anybody has experienced this same problem, please contribute to this thread. Thank you and happy programming! Lyndsey Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182722

    - Writing a login script........ Our co. is moving from Novell to AD and currently in the process of planning. Any PRO's out there have tips on the most efficient way to write a login script......... I've looked around and seem some that use the "IsMember" to check group membership, but that'll involve hardcoding the drive mapping for that group into the script. Any other suggested ways of writing a login script that will have less maintenance if future changes in mappings are required since our co. has a few thousand users I'd expect there be several drive mappings for each users.

    - output redirection doesn't work I would like to filter the output of a command-line program (like "telnet") to change parts of the output (replace certain strings with others). To write routines to recognize the strings I want to replace is not a problem, but I could not manage to redirect the output in a way, so I can filter it. The best redirection possibility I could find is the following for filtering the output of a "normal" command (in this case the "ver" command): ver | cscript.exe "c:\my path\muscript.vbs" '=== myscript.vbs === set stdin = wscript.stdin for each line in split(stdin.readall,vbcrlf) wscript.echo "==>", line next It was published by Michael Harris in http://www.ureader.com/message/483292. aspx, and this works nice with "normal" commands, but when I try to do it with the telnet-command, I just get the next line of the command-interpreter - no error-message, nothing, it just doesn't start telnet. I tried: telnet 192.168.0.1 | cscript.exe "c:\my path\myscript.vbs" ==> but it doesn't do the telnet Does anyone know, why the telnet-program is not being started, or how I can filter the output of a telnet-session? I am using the standard telnet-client of Windows XP. Thanks in advance, Mike Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182701

    - Problem in open a new window in an asp page Hi to all, I have to do an asp page with a form. When an user fill the data in the form and press a submit button is executed a validation of the data in the same page and, if they are correct, is showed a PDF document in a separated window. I've done it in this manner: <%@Language=VBScript%> <% : : Validation instructions : : if validation is ok then checkok=true %> <HTML> <HEAD> <script type="text/javascript"> function winop(url) { window.open(url,"","width=600,height=600"); } //--> </script> </HEAD> <% if checkok then %> <body onload="winop('showpdf.htm');"> <% else %> <body> <% end if %> <form action="url of this page" method="post"> a sequence of input text plus a submit button </form> </body> </HTML> This solution don't work in IE6.0 (popup block disabled), but work in other browser (Mozilla, Firefox, Opera). The problem is in the onload clause of body tag that don't open the new window. In fact if I call the winop function in the onclick event of the button it go without problem (but in this case the validation of data is not performed). Someone knows a better solution providing that I prefer to avoid the previous one because it don't go if the popup block is activated. Thanks to all.

    - running wmi query fails on certain computers. Hi guys, I wonder, you see the two queries below. The one that queries both application and system logs (the one on the bottom) does not work on certain computers - Windows 2000 Advanced Server - Windows 2000 domain). The same query works on other apparently similar computers. If I run the query (the one on the top) that only queries the application log it works ok. The problem is that it does not produce any errors, it simply doesn't fire any events. The queries are always ran using domain admin credentials. I would appreciate some help on this ! Thanks and Regards.

    - Sessions not working correctly on ASP page I have an ASP login section on my site that is experiencing some problems. Go to the following page and create a fake account (this is a test environment, so don't worry): http://seminarystreet.com/dev_testing/registration/default.asp Upon completion, you will be redirected to the login page, the new login credentials are automatically inserted into the username and password fields. Click the Login button. Once logged in, click the logout button and you will get a an error from my logout script, it completely refuses to log the visitor out. I have SQL insert statement used for auditing that is expecting the account_id to be passed, but it isn't there for some reason. Regardless, with or without that statement, the logout fails. Close out of the browser and go directly to the login page again, log in using the same credentials and try logging out. It works correctly. Now if you create a new account, close out of your browser and start a new session and login, it works fine too. I'm at a loss of words on this one, so any suggestions would really be appreciated.

    - WMI Network stats - incorrect object specification I'm trying to write a custom vbscript to extract Network transfer rates from a couple of servers using WMI. I found a script that enumerates the data, but I can't figure out how to specify the interface I want. I looked at Microsoft's site for methods and properties, and while it shows a number of properties, it isn't clear what the name of the parent property is. The problem lines are: wscript.echo TCPConfig.TotalBytesPerSecond(1) wscript.echo TCPConfig.Properties.Name(1) I know they're wrong - I'm guessing at the parent property names. I've also tried: wscript.echo TCPConfig.Item(1) (defaults sometimes work here) wscript.echo TCPConfig.Name(1) (defaults sometimes work here) wscript.echo TCPConfig.Properties.Name(1) wscript.echo TCPConfig.Properties_.Name(1) here is the script and the output: strComputer = "."

I've been trying to find a really good vb backup script with changeable options, I've been searching for weeks and weeks and nothing has come up. So I decided to have ago and fiddle with some vbscripting for myself, I managed to copy some different scripts from here and there and edit some bits and pieces of it, and finally I have something close to what I needed, everything seems to works fine. I've come to the point ware its way over my head, I wood like to add a "Progress Bar Indicator with transfer rates and times" I've got a working bar (See Part B) but I don't know how to add it into my script correctly (Dynamically) so it shows the progress, rates and time remaining of the files being transferred (the files and sizes can be different all the time) I've tried loads of different things with the two script but with no avail. It would be much appreciated if you could help!!!! Here's the code '---------------------------------------- '============================================================================= ' B A C K U P ' ' ' This vbs script is designed to take scheduled backups from disk to disk and disk to server .

    - Script to find NIC binding order. I am writing a script to verify that our servers are configured according to a standard build. I have one check that I can't figure out. Does anyone know how to query the NIC binding order that is being used? Need the same info that is provided by: Right Click "My Network Places" > Properties Click "Advanced" Menu item. Click "Advanced Settings" information under "Connections" is the information I need. Thanks in advance for your help! - JMC Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182635

    - Check if filename and variants of filename exist I am trying to write a script that will perform an action on a file if it exists. Can a string value be used with the FileExists method (ie If objFSO.FileExists("strFielname"))? I am asking the script user for input of path\filename and I need to base three variables on the input. If i can use the variable with the FileExists method, then how can I say "strFilename2 = strFilename plus a character" and strFilename3 = strFilename plus a character? Basically i have a file c:\blahblah\xyz.abc, which is what the user will input, and i need to perform the action on it, then go back and perform the same action on xyze.abc and xyzf.abc which are in the same folder. One minor wrinkle is that there are files xyz000.abc, etc that can't be touched, so I can't use a wild card. How can I do this? Thanks! Tag: FileSystemObject problems Tag: 182629

This is a query to do with classic ASP (written through vbscript).

I am trying to run an asp page on my local Windows 2000 machine which
creates a folder in the root directory of my site, but when I run the page it
simply hangs when it gets to the FileSystemObject folder creation part
(when I remove this line of code, the rest of the page works fine)

The code is fine because it is working on the live server, so the
problem is with the PERMISSIONS on my local Windows 2000 server.

I've set ALL folders from wwwroot upwards with FULL rwx access for ALL
users.. plus I've added the IUSR_(machinename) to this list with full
access. I've did this through Explorer.

I've run out of ideas on where else to set permissions... anyone got any
ideas??

Thanks!
Peter
