rscl Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Hello, I am trying to address a situation wherein a Non-Admin user can change his PC's IP Address, Gateway, Computer Name, Computer Full Name, Computer Description without having to give him the administrator password. I have managed a script which prompts the user for IP & Gateway. The script then sets the the IP & G/w using Administrator password hard coded inside the script. I provide a compiled version of this script to the users. I have not been successful in changing the `Computer Name`, `Computer Full Name`, `Computer Description` via AutoIT Script. Can help or pointer is appreciated. Best regards, Sanjay PS: I understand the security aspects & have decided to use this method to manage my network.

iamtheky Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) you can just set the registry keys via runas REG Delete/Add commands in the same manner supplying credentials. (from skinnywhiteguys script) these are the keys that need altered RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Computername\Computername", "Computername", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Computername\ActiveComputername", "Computername", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters", "Hostname", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters", "NV Hostname", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "AltDefaultDomainName", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon", "DefaultDomainName", "REG_SZ", $CompName) RegWrite ("HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows Media\WMSDK\General", "Computername", "REG_SZ", $CompName) Edited February 1, 2011 by iamtheky ,-. .--. ________ .-. .-. ,---. ,-. .-. .-. .-. |(| / /\ \ |\ /| |__ __||| | | || .-' | |/ / \ \_/ )/ (_) / /__\ \ |(\ / | )| | | `-' | | `-. | | / __ \ (_) | | | __ | (_)\/ | (_) | | .-. | | .-' | | \ |__| ) ( | | | | |)| | \ / | | | | | |)| | `--. | |) \ | | `-' |_| (_) | |\/| | `-' /( (_)/( __.' |((_)-' /(_| '-' '-' (__) (__) (_) (__) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
