I have a couple of VBS scripts that I'd like to share with others on
my web site. I'm putting together some instructions for their use and
realize that I don't know which MS OSs have the necessary scripting
engine in place by default.

I've only ever developed with VBScript on Windows XP Pro, so that's
the only platform I know for certain includes it.

Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

All clients with Windows 2000 or above come with WSH and VBScript. All other
32-bit clients (Windows 95/98/ME/NT) require either DSClient or WSH as a
separate install. Any client joined to a domain must have had DSClient
installed.
