Newbie Needing Help


Recommended Posts

Hi! I am new to autoit and need a bit of help. I found the autoit script below, and need to make some changes , but need experts input. I need to pass alternate domain credentials so users can kill PIDS on remote servers, but not have admin access. I can create a service account and would like the userid/password hard coded in the script when I compile it to an exe. And second.. I'd like it to not kill the pid when the user hits the kill button, I'd like it to pop up another window for confirmation before it sends the command. Thanks in Advance!!

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!

Ad 1) I wouldn't store userid/password for such a powerful user in a script. A compiled AutoIt script is no save place! If you do this in a company environment I'm sure your CIO will kill you.

Ad 2) Function KillProcess already has a confirm message. What else do you need?

Hi, do you have a question?

Also, where did you "find" this script?

Script was found via wonderful google search! Its what brought me to Autoit!

And the post above, there are only 4 users that will have this compiled script, so access to the service account is not a concern, we just don't want them to have Administrator access to the boxes. What I was wanting in the confirm was it to list the PID ID its going to kill.... Thansk!

And the Boss does know :-) we're a pretty small environment, so all is well with it...for now. The CORRECT solution is to fix our app so we don't HAVE to kill PIDS...but thats months down the road.

To show the PID alter this line in function KillProcess:

$confirmKill = MsgBox(36,"Kill Process", "Are you sure you want to kill the process " & $processName & " on computer " &$strComputer & "?")
to
$confirmKill = MsgBox(36,"Kill Process", "Are you sure you want to kill the process " & $processName & " (PID: " & $PID & ") on computer " & $strComputer & "?")

Thanks! Thats PERFECT! Any thoughts on passing credentials inside the script?

That's a bit more complex because you have to modify the WMI call. I remember there was a thread just a few weeks ago.

Will post as soon as I find anything.

Tried adding code change as below, and received error: Incorrect number of parameters in function call. And...since I am a newb...I am out of posts for the day. :thumbsdown:

;sets the computer name and call objget func to complete allow for wmi query
$objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:" & $strComputer & "rootCIMV2", $strUser, $strPassword)
call("GetProcessList") ;call the function to display a list of all the running processes

Why do you use call? Just call the function directly. And you need to change the way you define $objWMIService if you need to pass credentials:

$objSWbemLocator = ObjCreate("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
$objWMIService = $objSWbemLocator.ConnectServer($machine, "root\cimv2", $strUser, $strPassword)
GetProcessList() ;call the function to display a list of all the running processes
