    - Group lookup problem I have an old script I use to verify what groups a user is in and then run scripts based on thoughs groups. This script run perfectly fine on my current domain/forest with all users. However when I created a new domain/forest for a sub company that is braking off from us the script no longer works. The funny part is that for Domain admins it works fine but not for a regluar user. I think it is some permission change in AD and would like to know what I have to change to get this to work. Here is the part of the script I use to vailadate groups: ' Check For Group Messages and Mappings Set ADSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo") Set CurrentUser = GetObject("LDAP://" &ADSysInfo.UserName) arrMemberOf = CurrentUser.MemberOf For each Group in arrMemberOf Group = Mid(Group,4) intLeft = Instr(Group,",") - 1 Group = Left(Group, intLeft) 'WScript.Echo Group ' Check for a message for each Group Messagepath = Scrpath & "\" & Group & ".txt" 'WScript.Echo Messagepath If (fso.FileExists(Messagepath)) Then Set f = fso.OpenTextFile(Messagepath, ForReading, True) temp = WShShell.Popup(f.Readall,30,ExtremeM, 0 + 48) End If ' Chech for a Script for each Group Scriptpath = Scrpath & "\" & Group & ".VBS" 'WScript.Echo Scriptpath If (fso.FileExists(Scriptpath)) Then Temp = WshShell.Run(Scriptpath ,1 , True) End If Next Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217751

    - Authenticated SMB Access Hi there, I'm developing an app that reads a plain text file from a remote AS400- IFS Service (samba-like stuff I guess). The problem is that this access is not allowed without authentication, and I cannot authenticate the access from within my app (it's written in a very old programming language and I cannot change :( ). I was wondering if it's there any way to run my app from within an vbscript but call the app just after I have authenticated into the IFS service. There should be no difference from authenticating with a Windows- running machine, it should be like accessing a password protected shared folder on a remote Windows 2003 Server, for instance. Thanks in advance. A. Stukov. Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217737

    - Encrypting data in vbscript Hi, I have to encrypt some data using an encryption algorithm like TrippleDES or AES in VBScript. After searching I found that two system32 dlls "advadpi.dll" and "crypt32.dll" provides this functionality. But it seems these dlls are not COM dlls. Hence I am unable to use these dlls in vbscript. I have two questions here: 1. Please some one let me know whether I am reffering correct dlls or not to encrypt data in vbscript. 2. And if I am referring to the correct dlls then please put some light on how to use these dlls in vbscript. Thanks in advance. Regards, Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217735

    - ADSI scripting question I have a script that will pull the list of groups that have access to a folder that is specified in a message box. I also have each group outputting to a seperate worksheet in an Excel spreadsheet. The list of users in these groups are outputting in this form (CN=smith\,joe L,OU=Users,OU=Default,DC=test, DC=com). I want to just output Joe Smith, jsmith. When I change arrUsers = ObjRecordset.Fileds("member").Vaule to DistinguishedName or DisplayName or anything else I get nothing in these fields. I think it has to do with querying the "group" instead of the user category but am not sure if I am right or how to add a second query based on the results of the groups I pulled in the previous query.

    - Problem Passing Parameter to Web Method with VBScript I am using VBScript to access a remote database server via a web service. I am trying to call a web method that hits a database and runs the query I pass in as a parameter and returns the results. However, I am being returned an error that says the CommandText property has not been initialized. I researched the error, and I discovered that my sqlQuery parameter is not reaching the web service, so the service is trying to execute a blank command, which throws the error. I thought I was properly forming my SOAP command to pass the parameter, but maybe I am not. Here is the VBScript code to form the SOAP command and send it: Dim strSoapAction Dim strUrl Dim strXml Dim strParam Dim xmlDOC Set xmlDOC = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument.6.0") strParam = "SELECT KeyField, DataField FROM TestTable WHERE StatusField = 'Bad'" strUrl = "http://localhost/MOM_POC_DummyService/DataService.asmx" strSoapAction = "http://tempuri.org/GetDBData" strXml = "<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-8""?>" & _ "<soap:Envelope xmlns:xsi=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"" xmlns:xsd=""http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"" xmlns:soap=""http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"">" & _ "<soap:Body>" & _ "<CheckActCode xmlns=""http://tempuri.org/"">" & _ "<actCode>" & strParam & "</actCode>" & _ "</CheckActCode>" & _ "</soap:Body>" & _ "</soap:Envelope>" xmlDOC.loadXML(PostWebservice(strUrl, strSoapAction, strXml)) And here is the PostWebService function: Function PostWebservice(AsmxUrl, SoapActionUrl, XmlBody) Dim objDom Dim objXmlHttp ' Create objects to DOMDocument and XMLHTTP Set objDom = CreateObject("MSXML2.DOMDocument") Set objXmlHttp = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP") ' Load XML objDom.async = False objDom.loadXML XmlBody ' Open the webservice objXmlHttp.open "POST", AsmxUrl, False ' Create headings objXmlHttp.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "text/xml; charset=utf-8" objXmlHttp.setRequestHeader "SOAPAction", SoapActionUrl ' Send XML command objXmlHttp.send objDom.xml PostWebservice = objXmlHttp.responseXml.xml End Function This code works and returns data when I call web methods that do not require passed parameters, but this web method requires a single parameter (string sqlQuery).

    - return security access for a folder - DACL I am trying to write a script that will first list the security groups on a folder and their level of access - for example Admisitrators - Allowed - Full Control. Eventually I will want to output the users within these groups also. I am stuck in the first step. When i run the below script it always returns "No DACL present in security descriptor". For some reason it is not connecting and reading the folder i specify in strFolderName. I copied the beginning of the script below. Any help with identifying what is wrong is appreciated.

    - script to map tcp/ip printer I'm looking for a script that will map a printer based on ip address and also will assign it the generic laserjet 5 driver. For example if the print server goes down, a script to execute that will add the port number ip_192.168.1.x using the laserjet 5 print driver and possibly setting it as the default. Any ideas?

    - Win32_PingStatus on Vista (works on XP) I've nearly completed an HTA that uses the Win32_PingStatus to verify if a computer is up and running. If so it uses additional WMI to gather the computer name, logged on user and domain. Once that's is done it offers 4 options - Computer Management, Remote Assistance, Remote Desktop and connecting to c$. Very nice and almost done if it weren't for Vista. The code below (with the On Error disabled) errors at "For" with "Could not completed the operation due to error 80041001" but only when a number is enter that is smaller than 1677216 (which equates to 0.255.255.255. If the number enter is 1677216 (which equates to 1.0.0.0) then it will work properly. The problem is that it will work properly with both computer names and IP addresses and it is possible to name a computer, 45. I've tried checking the valued entered for a "." to make sure it's not an IP address and then using CStr so Vista won't treat it as number. This still doesn't work! Any ideas how to circumvent this problem? By the way, the onload checks the versions of Windows so I have the option to code using that and in some other places I do. ----------------------------------- Set objPing = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}").ExecQuery _ ("select * from Win32_PingStatus where address = '" & strCPU & "'") 'On Error Resume Next For Each objStatus in objPing... ----------------------------------- Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217623

    - Domain connection detection I would like to get a consensus from the group on the best / preferred method for detecting a connection to the domain for which a computer is a member of. I am going to write a script that runs at startup for laptop users that will check for a connection to the domain and exit if present. If not present, it will sit in an endless loop watching for a connection and then perform some tasks (map drives, check password expiration, etc) upon connection. I am considering pinging a known server. I am also considering using 'Scripting.FileSystemObject's' 'FolderExists' method to check for the DFS root. Which of these two methods would be the preferred method and are there other, better methods? Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217621

    - Are vbscript classes fast? Hi there, Just found these forums and my first post, so hi all I'm doing some work with vbscript just now and had a quick question I hope somebody could help with... Say I have a few functions for accessing a database e.g. openDBConn, closeDBConn, openRs, closeRs, getRsAsArray, executeSql, getDbConnString etc I could put these functions in to an include file "incDbHelper.asp" and include the file in any page that needs database functionality... or I could create a class "clsDbhelper.asp" which again I would include in any page that needs it. Now once the files have been included, to access the functions I could do: executeSQL("select * form table") or (if my db class is called Database) set db = new Database db.executeSQL("select * form table") So my question is what is the best method? Using a class seems like extra overhead for nothing? I've had a search around google but couldn't find anything on performance issues when using classes. Does anybody have an experience they could help me out with? Thanks in advance for any help Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217600

    - Problem with moving a file Hello, Using this script derived from a scriptcenter example, I'm trying to move a file: Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") objFSO.MoveFolder "C:\Temp" , "C:\Logs" The above works but when I change the destination to a different drive: Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") objFSO.MoveFolder "C:\Temp" , "D:\Logs" the script fails. I can move a folder from some source on C:\ to some other location on C:\. But if the same operation tries to move from C:\ -> D:\ then it fails with: Line 2 Char 1 Permission denied 800A0046 What is really confusing to me is I'm running the script as a member of domain administrators and that account has write access to D:\. How can I get this script to move folders across drives? Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks! Tag: Rename a file with yesterdays days date Tag: 217558

You could use the script below. You need to be careful with your
file & folder names - I assume you did not mean
c\AutoDaily\20080510.zip but instead
c:\AutoDaily\20080510.zip

01. Const sWD = "c:\AutoDaily\"
02. Const sArchive = "c:\AutoDaily\Archive\"
03. Const sFName = "c:\AutoDaily\18991230.zip"
04.
05. Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
06. If Not oFSO.FolderExists(sWD) then Error "Cannot locate folder """ & sWD
& """"
07. If Not oFSO.FolderExists(sArchive) then Error "Cannot locate folder """
& sArchive & """"
08.
09. dYesterday = DateAdd("d", -1, Now())
10. sYesterday = 10000 * Year(dYesterday) + 100 * Month(dYesterday) +
Day(dYesterday)
11.
12. if not oFSO.FileExists(sFName) then Error "Cannot locate file """ &
sFName & """"
13. if oFSO.FileExists (sArchive & sYesterday & ".zip") then Error "Archive
file """ & sArchive & sYesterday & ".zip"" exists already!"
14. oFSO.MoveFile sFName, sArchive & sYesterday & ".zip"
15.
16. Sub Error(sMsg)
17. MsgBox sMsg
18. WScript.Quit
19. End Sub
