vrocco Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 I need to push out a script to install the dameware mini remote service on machines running Windows 7 with UAC enabled (disabling UAC is not an option). I need the script to be able to be run by the user without elevating. User has write access to C:, so I created a temp directory, copied all files there, then tried to do the elevated part by using a RunAs @comspec. The problem is, it's not working at all. What am I missing here. The script just exits with no errors, but doesn't even create the directory. Thanks for the help expandcollapse popupDirCreate("C:\dwrcs") ;Copy files needed for Dameware NT Utilities FileInstall("DNTUS26.exe", "C:\dwrcs\DNTUS26.exe") ;Copy files needed for Dameware Mini Remote FileInstall("DWRCK.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCK.dll") FileInstall("DWRCRSS.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCRSS.dll") FileInstall("DWRCS.exe", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCS.exe") FileInstall("DWRCSET.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCSET.dll") FileInstall("DWRCSh.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCSh.dll") FileInstall("DWRCST.exe", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCST.exe") FileInstall("DWRCWXL.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCWXL.dll") ;Copy files needed for FIPS modules FileInstall("ccme_base.dll", "C:\dwrcs\ccme_base.dll") FileInstall("ccme_ecc.dll", "C:\dwrcs\ccme_ecc.dll") FileInstall("ccme_eccaccel.dll", "C:\dwrcs\ccme_eccaccel.dll") FileInstall("ccme_eccnistaccel.dll", "C:\dwrcs\ccme_eccnistaccel.dll") FileInstall("cryptocme2.dll", "C:\dwrcs\cryptocme2.dll") FileInstall("cryptocme2.sig", "C:\dwrcs\cryptocme2.sig") FileInstall("DWRCRSA.dll", "C:\dwrcs\DWRCRSA.dll") ;Move files to proper directories and install services RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "mkdir C:\Windows\dwrcs") RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "copy C:\dwrcs\*.* C:\Windows\dwrcs") RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "move C:\Windows\dwrcs\DNTUS26.exe C:\Windows\system32 /Y") RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "C:\Windows\dwrcs\DWRCS.exe -install") RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "C:\Windows\system32\DNTUS26.exe -install") ;Start services RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "net start DWMRCS") RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "net start DNTUS26") ;Cleanup DirRemove("C:\dwrcs", 1) Exit
BrewManNH Posted November 23, 2011 Posted November 23, 2011 Can't you install the files from the DameWare console to the target machines? If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

vrocco Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) No for some reason it doesn't work in Windows 7 (at least not with our combination of GPO, settings, etc). In XP, as soon as you tried to connect to the target, it would detect if the service was installed or not and install it if needed. Now, the only way we could get it to connect is if the service is installed beforehand and already running. Hence the need to script the service install. If you know another way I can try from the dameware console, I am open to suggestions. Edited November 23, 2011 by vrocco
vrocco Posted November 23, 2011 Author Posted November 23, 2011 Can anyone see a problem with the script? Why isn't it running, but not giving me any errors?
JoachimR Posted November 25, 2011 Posted November 25, 2011 Viocco, for one thing, your script is wrong... RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & "mkdir C:Windowsdwrcs") should be RunAs("admin", @ComputerName, "passwords", 0, @ComSpec & " /c mkdir C:Windowsdwrcs") However, I think that even if you correct that it will not work. I have tried to solve the exact same problem for registering a program in Windows 7. All error returns are 0, but it does not do anything. Is there anybody who has ever gotten AutoIt RunAs to work with admin priviledges on Windows 7?
