    - Manipulating REG_NONE values with stdregprov or wshshell? On a domain controller, the keys below are supposed to have identical (default) REG_NONE values, and when they donâ??t, Kerberos is broken. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY\Policy\PolAcDmN HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY\Policy\PolPrDmN (to view anything under HKLM\Security, you need to give Administrators Full Control to the permissions on the Security key) Iâ??d like to write a script that compares those values and fixes them if needed. But Iâ??ve yet to find a way to read or write a REG_NONE value with vbscript or WMI. Reg.exe handles REG_NONE values fine, but I donâ??t want to depend on it being there since in 2000 reg.exe is in the support tools, not in the product like XP/2003. And, those values almost never get mismatched in 2003, as there were checks put in to verify they are consistent at boot. Is there a way to manipulate REG_NONE values with stdregprov or wshshell?

    - Using VBscript to Remove installed programs I have never used vbscript so I thought I would start by asking if what I want to accomplish is even possible. I would like to use vbscript to uninstall programs automatically using either Group policies or logon scripts. Most of the programs were not installed using .msi files. Is there a way to do this with vbscript? Any tips on how to do it? Thanks in advance Steve Tag: Replacing Novell Login Script Tag: 164161

    - Append to a Registry Value Hi, I am writing a script to update an annoying package that our company is forced to use. One of the things this script must do is to update the System Path registry key for the Environmental variables. It needs to append to the end of it but leave the rest of the path alone. I need to roll this out to 400 machines, of which most have different path variables so I cannot just blank it and insert a new one with all the usual stuff + the bit I want to put in. Can I write a VBS script to append to the end of the hklm\system\currentcontrolset\control\session manager\environment\path value? Cheers Andy Tag: Replacing Novell Login Script Tag: 164143

Now I must to do some project where a database would be usefull. But the hosting plan which is chossed by my company doesn't include MySQL databases:(, so I cann't to use e.g. php for this purpose.

    - MouseOver event on a listbox not working on Windows 2003 Within our product, we use dynamic HTML code. One part of the functionality is to call a function on a MouseOver event on a listbox. This worked correctly on Windows 2000 systems but on Windows 2003, the function does not get called. The only workaround we have been able to find is to use the "about:blank", as a trusted site, however we are concerned at the security implications of implementing this workaround. Is there any configuration option on Windows 2003 which would allow us to execute function calls for a MouseOver event on a listbox? Tag: Replacing Novell Login Script Tag: 164140

    - Calling Sub w/ Arguments I have an HTML page that has an imbedded script. I want to call if from a link and pass two values as arguments. The HTML document is being loaded into a script-aware applicatoin. When I click the link, I get an error : "Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment 'ZoomToOcr'". I'm sure this is simple...but I'm fairly new to the HTML side. BTW, a couple of side issues: 1) I am only running the script from the link so I am holding the HREF="". 2) The "Set SW" line relates to the environment in which the script is running and the html page is being loaded. I've used this before and it works fine. Here's my header w/ script...followed by my <A> link section: <HTML> <HEAD><META HTTP-EQUIV=""Content-Type"" CONTENT=""text/html; charset=windows-1252""><META NAME=""Generator"" CONTENT=""Microsoft Word 97""></HEAD> <TITLE>OCR Search on DB Search Results</TITLE><p><p> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript" TYPE="text/VBScript"> Sub ZoomToOCR(DocID, Line) Set SW=window.external SW.ZoomToOCRDoc DocID, Line, "" End Sub </SCRIPT> <A HREF="" ONCLICK=ZoomToOCR "BK000001", 21>BK000001</A> If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

    - How to Authenticate to Create Local User On Remote WorkGroup Computer? Hi, First let me start by saying I'm no vbscripter but I've been doing some playing around and I'm trying to write a small vbscript that I can execute with cscript to create a local user on a remote Standalone machine. I started by creating a simple script that allows me to enter the computer name to create the account on along with the username and password of the new user account that will be created. I was able to run this script on my local machine without problems and I was also able to supply a different computer and successfully created the account after authenticating myself with net use \\remotepc /user:<Administrator> <Password> ------ strComputer = InputBox("Enter Computer Name: ", "Computer Name") strUserName = InputBox("Enter UserName: ", "User Information") strPassword = InputBox("Enter Password: ", "Password") Set Accounts = GetObject("WinNT://" & strComputer & ",computer") Set objUser = Accounts.Create("user", strUserName) objUser.SetPassword strPassword objUser.Put "PasswordExpired", 1 objuser.Fullname = "Test User" objuser.description = "Test Description" objUser.SetInfo ------ So now my problem, after two days of reading, I haven't really been able to figure out how I can avoid the net use procedure and have the script authenticate and create the user on a remote standalone box. I've read that it's farily easy to authenticate a user on Active Directory using the LDAP Provider, I've been trying to do the same thing using the WinNT provider. As you can see from some good I pieced together with sames on the net. As I said before, I'm not vbscripter and I'm not sure if I'm even going in the right direction, but I hope that someone could give me some suggestions or point me to a sample script that can authenticate as a user on a remote box that isn't on the domain to perform administrative tasks. Thanks in Advance! --- strComputer = InputBox("Please enter Computer Name: ", "Computer Name") strUserName = InputBox("Please enter UserName: ", "User Information") strPassword = InputBox("Please enter Password: ", "Password") on error resume next strADsPath = ("WinNT://" & strComputer) if (not strADsPath= "") then ' bind to the ADSI object and authenticate Username and password Dim oADsObject Set oADsObject = GetObject(strADsPath) WScript.Echo "Authenticating" Dim strADsNamespace Dim oADsNamespace strADsNamespace = left(strADsPath, instr(strADsPath, ":")) set oADsNamespace = GetObject(strADsNamespace) Set oADsObject = oADsNamespace.OpenDSObject(strADsPath & "/" & strUserName, strUserName, strPassword, 1) ' we're only bound if err.number = 0 if not (Err.number = 0) then WScript.Echo "Failed to bind to object" ' & strADsPath WScript.Echo err.description WScript.Echo "Error number is " & err.number else WScript.Echo "USER AUTHENTICATED!"

    - ASP Page as a remote function call in JavaScript Hello, I've been playing with the idea of just how to use an ASP page to provide a remote function call. In an ideal world this would be a web service but how can you do it if restricted to ASP 3.0 ? Idea 1 was to write an ASP page that accepted arguments using the classic ?X=1&Y=2 type of strings and have the page return an ADO disconnected record set containing the results of the action. This is call very well, and works, but you do have to allow the browser to create an ADODB.RecordSet in which to place the results which goes against some security principles. Idea 2 was to use an <IFRAME> and replace the src for this frame at run time with the result from an ASP page, again using the ?X=1&Y=2 type of string to pass in arguments. The results could then come back as a table and be accessed via the DOM. The problem with this is that the client needs to wait for the page to be loaded before it can be sure that the contents of the table is valid and the browser does not seem to allow waits and does not like busy waits.

    - Vbscript for database manipulation Hi all, Here is what I am trying to do, hope someone can help me implement this. Every hour, I would like a script that does the following (in vbscript cause that's the only one I am even remotely comfortable with) 1- Extract from a secure database 4 query result tables and copy them into a new unsecure database 2- Connect to the internet 3- Send the new unsecure database to our servers online 4- Close the internet connection I think I have figured out how to do step number 3 through an ftp -s: script and ftp command .txt file. My problem is really step 1, so far, I have only been able to create a new blank database, with the structures of the 4 tables receiving the query results built. I am stuck here, I can't even transfer the query results to the database, and I haven't even started looking at how to unsecure the new database, and/or tables. Does anyone know of any efficient, quick way of doing, the above? I think I can manage with steps 2 and 4, Step 1 is really my problem here.

    - Removing Temp Files I regularly have to remove spyware/adware from different client PCs. Some of these PCs have multiple users. The first thing I do is boot into safe mode and remove all temp files, temp internet files, and cookies out of each users profile and delete the temp files out of the windows\temp folder. I was looking for a way to automate this process. Disk Cleanup does not remove all instances of these file. Does anyone know of a script or batch file that will clear out all file in the directories mentioned above? I also install 3 programs with regularity; SpyBot, Ad-Aware, and Spyware Blaster. If I could utilize a script or batch file to install all three at the same time that would be great. I understand that this may sound lazy. However, I do this with such regularity, with different clients at different locations. I am just looking for something to help automate the process. Thank you all in advance for your advice.

    - Registry Changes I have been tasked to write a script to manually update several local security policy entries in a large list of computers but without the use of group policy! All reserach I have done indicates the Administrative Templates section is registry addressable and is easy enough to script updates to, but not the Security Settings or Windows Settings sections, as they write to the Registry's protected area in HKLM\Security. Does anyone have any suggestions? Without calling secedit and template files, I've found no other alternatives. Thanks, Jack Tag: Replacing Novell Login Script Tag: 164047

We are replacing our Novell login script with a vbs script login script. I
am having trouble figuring out how to convert the following:
In Novell:
IF MEMBER OF ".PBAPPS.GROUPS.CHI.XXX" THEN
MAP N:=CHI13\VOL1:\APPS\PB32
MAP INS S9:=CHI13\VOL1:\APPS\PB32
END

In vbs I have so far:
If IsMember("CHIPBAppsUsers") Then
DriveMapper "N:", "\\chi13\vol1\apps\pb32" (this is fine)
Net Use * \\chi13\vol1\apps??? (Not sure how to do a map insert search
drive)
End If

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Hi

Sorry, Microsoft does not have any built-in that does what Netware's
map insert search (MAP INS) does.
