    - How to get e-mail address attribute from AD Using vbscript, what is a simpliar to retrieve the value for the e-mail address attribute for an AD user? The following will get the desired value, but I am curious as to why I have to do so much to get the value. I guess my main question is why do I have to perform the steps below the nametranslate comment and then having to convert results? Is there no simpliar way to get e-mail address for a username? If so would someone post the code? Thank you. Code snippet: strNTName = "xusername" ' Determine DNS domain name from RootDSE object. Set objRootDSE = GetObject("LDAP://RootDSE") strDNSDomain = objRootDSE.Get("rootDomainNamingContext") wscript.echo strdnsdomain ' Use NameTranslate to find the NetBIOS domain name ' from the DNS domain name. Set objTrans = CreateObject("NameTranslate") objTrans.Init 3, strDNSDomain objTrans.Set 1, strDNSDomain strNetBIOSDomain = objTrans.Get(3) wscript.echo strnetbiosdomain ' Use NameTranslate to convert the NT user name to the ' Distinguished Name required for the LDAP provider. objTrans.Init 1, Left(strNetBIOSDomain, _ Len(strNetBIOSDomain) - 1) objTrans.Set 3, strNetBIOSDomain & strNTName strUserDN = objTrans.Get(1) wscript.echo struserdn ' Bind to the user object in AD Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & strUserDN) Wscript.Echo "SMTP Address: " & objUser.mail Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165337

    - Memory problem with Wscript when it is closing Hi, I have two problems with Wscript (WSH and VBScript), I execute a script which will create another script on a remote machine, then the remote script will execute. Every thing is fine, But sometime, I got run-time error that Wscript try to read some thing from somewhere in memory that it can not be read. And Sometime when my script finishes its execution, when Wscript is closing, Wscript try to write some thing to somewhere that it can not be written. In both case I got a popup to tell me that Wscript is not working. I use to the "Option Explicit" to force the variable declaration., And the script will keep running until I tell it to stop (via configuration file) it may run more than 5 or 6 hours. If anyone have any idea? Thanks you very much Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165330

    - RegRead Hi, I am trying to read a reg key from the registry. the problem is that if the key doesn't exist, the script jumps to "If Err.Number <> 0 Then", or cause runtime error, if i don't use "On Error Resume Next" I wanted to use it in the following way: Set RegistryOBJ = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell") 'returns the path of my app writen in the registry Get_ETS_PathInRegistry = RegistryOBJ.RegRead(ETS_RegistryLocation) If ETS_UnInstallPath = False Then 'if the key doesn't exist, we can install the app Install_ETS(ETS_InstallPath) Else 'if the key exists, we should uninstall it and then install the new version(might be in new path) UnInstall_ETS(ETS_UnInstallPath) 'ETS_InstallPath is being obtained from user. Install_ETS(ETS_InstallPath) End If The problem is that it doesn;t go to the "If ETS_UnInstallPath = False Then" but as i described above, go to the end of the script and then ends the script. in this way, i will need to add in "If Err.Number <> 0 Then" "Install_ETS(ETS_InstallPath) " command. Isn't there an elegant way to do so, or i should consider doing it using VC? Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165305

    - vbscript, asp, sockets responses not received Howdy People, I guess this might be more of an IIS architectural question, but there is some vbscript content, so I'll post it here. Grateful for any help people might have on this problem. I have an asp page running some vbscript. The vbscript instances a COM dll. The COM dll sends a UDP message to a process running on another server somewhere, then blocks waiting for the response. My problem is that the response is never received by the dll. I've tried running a sniffer on the web server, and it shows that the response is coming back as expected, coming to the correct port number and everything, but the dll just sits there and receives nothing. Any clues what's going on? MIKE Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165300

    - Script connection to SQL Server db Hi NG, from within a script, I want to connect to a SQL Server database using a dedicated user account that has 'INSERT' rights for a special table within this db. As this table contains sensitive data, we want to use an account with just this right so that anybody who guesses the password cannot read the data. The SQL server uses Windows NT authentication ONLY (no mixed security). How must I construct the ADO connection to use the dedicated user account for the connection? So far, I have scripts that authenticate an ADO connection using a SQL server account (with SQL server in mixed security), but I cannot figure out how to use a different domain user when connecting to a SQL server with Windows NT authentication.

' = Line #2 Well, this raises a few questions for which I haven't been able to find answers.. a. Must Line #2 come immediately after Line #1? b. If I want to work on folder "B" too in this script: 1) Do I repeat Line #1 again as follows? Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") ' = Line #1 again Set files = fso.GetFolder("C:\B").Files. ' = Line #3) 2) If I do repeat Line #1 again, how do I tell a routine which folder object to work on? 3) Where can I find the answers/explanations for these questions? Thanks, marc hankin Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165183

    - Using GPG From Script Hello, Yes, I've Googled and so on, but am a bit stuck. This is actually my first vbscript. The goal is to manage GPG encryption/decryption of files from a script, which will eventually be a function of a larger script. The script below is my attempt at getting this working. The first WshShell.Exec works but the second does not (the first one may wrap). I'm sure it's something simple. --- Option Explicit 'Declare the variables Dim WshShell, oExec Dim GPGPTFName Dim GPGRecip 'Define the variables GPGPTFName = "c:\gnupg\test.txt" 'GPG plain-text filename GPGRecip = "someone@somedomain.com" 'GPG recipient 'Define the constants Const GPGEncrypt = "C:\gnupg\gpg.exe -e -r" 'GPG command to encrypt Const GPGDecrypt = "C:\gnupg\gpg.exe -d" 'GPG command to decrypt 'Invoke the WScript Shell Object Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject ("WScript.Shell") WshShell.Exec "C:\gnupg\gpg.exe -e -r someone@somedomain.com c:\gnupg\test.txt" WshShell.Exec (GPGEncrypt & GPGRecip & GPGPTFName) --- Also, please bear in mind that I will eventually need to capture an exit status and error out to a mail function (with the reason why it failed), if it fails. All help appreciated. Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165180

    - Can vbscript name files in a web folder? I'm wondering if I should learn vbScript... I'd like to have a folder in my webspace, where I can dump any number of jpg's arbitrarily, and write a web-page that will pick up everything in the jpg folder, without my having to name each jpg in the script. Can that be done with vbscript, or does it exceed security limitation. tony Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165170

    - From numbers to letters. This script transforms a number in words. It works fine but as I'm a non-native english speaker I don't know if the result is correct english. Especially for Billions.

    - Createing active directory users from non administrator accounts. I work for a public school district. I have a script that will add users to Active Directory from a .CSV file. My problem is that I don't get notification of new hires and new students. I also don't get notification of students or employee's that leave. What I would like to do is have human resourses a script that will add new accounts for the new employee's and also an office script for new students. How can I have my script authenticate as an administrator so that it will create the accounts? Thank you Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165157

    - .inf scripts Where can I find a description of the inf scripting language? Suzanne Knapp Tag: Scripting.FileSystemObject's stopped working Tag: 165150

Hi everyone,

WhatÂ´s wrong with my test-enviroment (W2K + IIS 5.0 + ASP-pages ) on my
homepc.

All Scripting.FileSystemObject objects stopped working suddenly? For example
following simple script seems running & running without timeout? Nothing also

set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set f=fs.CreateTextFile("c:\test.txt",true)
f.WriteLine("Hello World!")
f.Close
set f=nothing
set fs=nothing

IÂ´m running this script with the http://locahost/test.asp url

Greetings from finland

Ilari

Hi

Most likely caused by a script blocking feature in your
AntiVirus program:
