OOPS! but you could always do a fileinstall and copy it to the computer to be ran on. It is a really cool tool.

If they are using XP they dont need any zip program, no 7zip, no includes or special dlls. I use the runwait command with cabarc. Cabarc is part of xp and you can create and extract .cab files with it. Even has switches for compressing more than you can with winzip.

If you are using Active Directory you can add registry settings in group policy or set proxy setting in group policy Internet Explorer Maintenance. If you arent using AD, then you can use the below key if you want it in current user. But, you would probably be better of with HKEY_USERS because HKEY_CURRENT_USER is only going to modify the user currntly logged in and your script would need to be ran at least once for each user. You could do this with a logon script though. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings

This IS the general support forum. Scripts and Scraps is not the support forum. You would be better off using the send command with sleep(2000) for your pauses... and using a loop to repeat it if it is always the same.

I have written a script to reconfigure my network adapter to use PEAP, but this script works interactively and is not pretty. This can not be accomplished through a registry edit because the keys needed do not exsist until peap is configured once. You can not just create the keys because there are keys specific for the card that do not exsist until peap is created once, and these keys are used to finish the configuration. I can not just configure it and capture the settings for later use because we have multiple network types on the network. I am looking for a way to manipulate the network adapter gui without it actually having to open. Would com objects be the way? Any suggestions are appreciated.

Ok, you said you are using Active Directory. Do you have admin rights on the users computers? If you do you can use the dos command schtasks to schedule the tasks to run under your own account. It would be easy to create a file of computer names you want the same task scheduled on an run a script to read the file to schedule it.

You have to set a working dir that points back to the c:\ I ran into this with a run command from a share. This fix is not mine... I found it in another thread on this board. Run( @ComSpec & " /c net localgroup administrators /add " & @LogonDomain & "\" & @UserName, @tempdir )

I just ran into this myself. The fix was to set the working directory to an accessable point on the C:, like @tempdir I did not have a working dir set, but when I did it ran fine. Also I had to run the script from Start/Run, it would not run with the folder open. Top

The way you have it written RunAsSet("administrator", @Computername, "password") this is not using the server password but the local admin password. If you changed the server local admin password this should then just change the password. If you want to use a domain account the RunAsSet("administrator", @logondoman, "password") should work. Top

I would recheck the AV. I used to run Panda AV and it deleted all my Autoit exe's in one whack one night. If you use Panda, let me know and I'll go into more detail. Top

does it work from the command line? Top

Here is an example of a net start, just change the ccmexec to your service you want to start, do the same with net stop. RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'net start ccmexec',@TempDir,@SW_HIDE)

I would like to know where the Marcos are pulling their information from. I have some computers that WMI is broken and need to know if the @ComputerName macro is pulling its information from WMI or not. Thanks, Top
