    - Connection Errors Hey group. I'm having a problem with a script I'm writing. I'm writing a script to use a net use command, map a drive, connect to this mapped drive, and do a couple things. The script runs fine up to and including the net use command. After that though, it doesnt work; bascally I don't have permissions (with the script) to go to the newly mapped drive (the account I am using to run it is a domain admin). For testing purposes, I'm only trying to connect to one box. Here's a code snipit: strComputer="est213-01" strdirlist = "net use k: \\" & strComputer & "\c$" Wscript.Echo strdirlist Set doit = WshShell.Exec(strdirlist) strdirlist = "k:" Wscript.Echo strdirlist Set doit = WshShell.Exec(strdirlist) As soon as I try to connect to k:, I get errors. However, it does create k: in the first net use command (I can manually get to it). Any suggestions? Thanks. Anthony Tag: Good book? Tag: 152673

    - Adding computer name to wallpaper Hi, I'm asking a lot of stupid questions today, but please bear with me, it won't get worse than this! We use unattended or RIS installation, and today, whenever a server is an administrator logs on and performs a few tasks that we haven't been able to automate yet. When deploying servers we include a branded desktop wallpaper, and one of the manual tasks is to edit the wallpaper (using Paint) to include the server name etc.. Questions: * Is there any way to script the editing of the wallpaper file? * Or are there any utilities out there which can perform this task? * Or alternatively, is there another (smarter) way to have the server name and other info displayed in a similar fashion as when using a wallpaper? Any input highly appreciated! Thanks, Jørn Tag: Good book? Tag: 152607

    - WMI, services and WinXP Hello Everyone, I wrote from Italy so please be patient with my english, thanks. I am a programmer and I would like to use WMI (great!) with Visual Basic 6.0 (or VBSCRIPT) to obtain services enumeration on a remote computer, just for see what services are running and so on. The code below works well with Win2K O.S., but there are no chances to use it with WinXP; every time the error description is "Authorization denied". I think this is a problem with WinXp access security, because the API EnumServicesStatus (and related) like the WMI code dont' works with WinXp, but works well with Win2K. Same consideration with the SC.exe utility from Microsoft : impossible to query the remote service dtabase on a WinXp O.S. IMPORTANT I am convinced that this is a problem related to the security and permission because, as I say, I can't execute the code remotely (i.e. enumerating services on a WinXp PC over the network from an another Win2K PC...) but the code works well If I use VB directly on a WinXp PC. Consider that the computers with WinXp O.S. are correctly registered on the network (LAN), beacuse I can browse they shared folders with Explorer. Can someone help me, please? Thank You in advance for Your very very precious support. VB 6.0 CODE [START] 'this line gets an error on a WinXP computer (remotely), but the code works well with Win2K or WinXP (locally) Set WMI = GetObject("WinMgmts:\\MyRemoteComputerName") Set objs = WMI.InstancesOf("Win32_Service") 'Win32_BaseService For Each obj In objs Debug.Print obj.Description Next obj VB 6.0 CODE [END] GianPiero Tag: Good book?

    - Logon script Hi all, Looking for a programmer to help me with following: I am not familiar with vbscripting, but we are in desperate need for a logon script for our W3K domain clients. Clients are a mixture of NT4 SP5 and W2K Sp3 & 4 Up until now we used winbatch to perform certain tasks, but since this is an 'old' licence, we need to upgrade our scripts (and our licence). I want to switch to windows scripting to avoid to have to buy new licences for over 200 clients.. Current situation: Clients are members of one or more groups. In our netlogon share, we may have a CMD file with the same name of the group. When logging on, a login.cmd file is run. This cmd verifies if the user is member of a given group (GG-All). If not, it sends a net send to a given system, indicating the user is not a member of that group, and exits. If user is member of GG-All, the the winbatch script runs. The current winbatch script puts a full-screen window on the clients machine, used to indicate the progress in the logon. It then makes a list of all global groups the user belongs to. If there is a matching cmd file, then that cmd file is executed. (so if a user is memeber of 'GG-Testgroup' then 'GG-Testgroup.cmd' gets executed) Problems we have now: Most of the CMD files that are executed are doing four things: - Check if certain directories exist on the client machine. If not create them. - Creating network shares - Setting registry entries - Synchronising files between the fileserver and the client. We use robocopy to synchronise files (works perfectly). A lot of these CMD files have some sync-commands in common, so there is a possibility that these commands get executed more than once (resulting in lenghty logons....). These CMD files/groups are all named in the same format e.g. GG-SoftwareA, GG-SoftwareB, GG-SoftwareC, ... So what I need: Basically : same as above, but in vbs ;-) - Less code in login.cmd (I think the only line should be 'wscript login.vbs' , to please the NT4 machines...) - If user not memeber of 'GG-All' : message to user and \\console PC - Full screen window, listing user's display name, and a list of all the login 'jobs' that have to run (= all the groups a user is member of AND have a CMD file associated with it) (would be nice if an indication of already executed jobs could be made, or progress bar) - If user is memeber of at least 1 'GG-Software." group : execute common code in GG-Software.cmd - For all groups user is member of: execute group.CMD (minimized, or at least 'behind' logon screen) Someone can help me with this? If you are willing to help me, you can send a mail to t d e m e y e r [at] m u l t i n e t g r o u p [dot] c o m. Tim Tag: Good book? Tag: 152600

However, if I add "wscript.echo objFile.name" in a line before "objOutputFile.Writeline(objfile.name)", I receive a message box indicating the correct filename.

    - Getting SQL Script to run in VBS Hi Everyone, I am very new to VB Scripting and would like to find out how might I go about running an SQL (2000) statement through VBScript and then assign the result into an environment variable. My application can read the environment variables. Essentially here is the SQL command I have been trying to use with VB Script: isql -U sa -P password -Q "select cast(substring(@@version,0,charindex('(',@@version,0)) as varchar(40)), cast(substring(@@version,charindex('Build',@@version,0)-1, Len(@@version)) as varchar(35))" -o c:\result\SQLVersion.txt The SQL statement gives me the SQL Server version and its service pack info. Right now it writes to a file but I rather keep it in the memory if possible, and then simply manipulate the text so that it shows only a single line of text instead of three. Thank you for any pointers. Tag: Good book? Tag: 152571

    - Using CSVDE output data in VBS, problem with "\\" I use csvde to extract data that looks like: 101000081,"CN=Czuchry\\, Michael L.,OU=psy,OU=Depts,DC=company,DC=com" 101000164,"CN=Loud\\, John,OU=lan,OU=Depts,DC=company,DC=com" etc. I read that into a VBscript and then based on other criteria, I want to disable and then move the appropriate user accounts. That section of my code looks like this: ************************ 1 If status = "notactive" Then 2 strADsPath = "LDAP://" & objRecordset.Fields.Item("DN") 3 wscript.echo strADsPath 4 Set objUser = GetObject(strADsPath) 5 wscript.echo objUser 6 7 UAC = objUser.Get("userAccountControl") 8 9 objUser.Put "userAccountControl", UAC OR ADS_UF_ACCOUNTDISABLE 10 objUser.SetInfo 11 12 Set objOU = GetObject("LDAP://ou=Mail1Disables,ou=ToBeDeleted,dc=company,dc=com") 13 objOU.MoveHere strADsPath, vbNullString 14 End if The problem is when line 2 tries to build the correct AD path, it sticks the two \\ characters which is invalid: LDAP://CN=Loud\\, John,OU=lan,OU=Depts,DC=tcu,DC=edu C:\scripts\smooth.vbs(63, 5) (null): An invalid dn syntax has been specified. How can I convert the \\ to just \ which is the true DN? I suppose csvde is esc'ing the single DN during its output, but that's such a huge pain to deal with. I also realize I shouldn't have to do the csvde export at all, I should be able to query all the users in AD directly and set variables for them, but I haven't learned how to do that yet.

    - Script to run when screen saver is on (w2kpro) How do you get a VB script to work when the screen saver (with password protect) is on? I have a script that will work (to do a disk defrag) when run from the desktop, but when I put it in the scheduler and it runs with the screen saver on, it runs it to the point when it should choose some Send Keys command. At that point it appears that the window that is supposed to be chosen is not selected and the script hangs. Anyone with any ideas? Brian Tag: Good book? Tag: 152568

    - Vb Script to Join a Nt4 Domain and add domain user to Local Admin group Dear all, I am trying to create a script that will join a Xp pc to a nt4 domain. However i need to be able to pass the details of the domain admin through to join the domain. Below is the script that i am using to join the domain. However it needs to be able to parse the domain administrator details to join the domain. Set net = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Network") local = net.ComputerName DomainName = "MyDomain" UserAccount = "testuser" set group = GetObject("WinNT://"& local &"/Administrators") group.Add "WinNT://"& DomainName &"/"& UserAccount &"" Any help on the above code or other code would be great.

    - Hex to Decimal I would like to find the script to convert a Hex number to a decimal number. I couldn't find the function in the Window Script documentation. Actually I am trying to write an hex number into the registry, I used Reg.Write with a REG_DWORD type; but it only takes decimal number. Thanks. JW Tag: Good book? Tag: 152544

    - Win32_NTLogEvent Query Security Log Hello. I try to query the Security Log of a Windows 2000 Domain Controller. I only want to query for a special time period. I#ve created the following query string: Set colLoggedEvents = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_NTLogEvent Where TimeWritten >= '"&dtmStart&"' and TimeWritten < '"&dtmEnd&"' and Logfile='Security' and EventIdentifier='644'", , 48) The dtmStart and dtmEnd Values are calculated by a Function. The Return value of this Function is string. If I execute the query I get the following error: (null): 0x80041017 In the MS KB 295821 is the clear text of this error number. It means "WBEM_E_INVALID_QUERY ". I've pasted the query from the Script Repository from MS. If I paste the Values manually (i.e.dtmStart =20040127084847.000000+060; dtmEnd=20040128084847.000000+060) I get return values!

    - FTP Help needed Can someone please tell me where I can find some useful information on how to retrieve a file via ftp in a vbscript? I've found countless articles about msinet.ocx, but not much on how to use it. i'm having to go through a proxy server to get the file. Tag: Good book? Tag: 152535

Can anyone recommend a good book to get started with scripting. I am very
well versed with batch scripting and Auto-it but I would like to gain more
experience so as far as I see the next logical step would be to learn
vb-script. What do you think. What are some good books.

I agree; Windows 2000 Scripting Guide is the best I have
