New Project

[Doxie]

Intresting title.. eeh

Well, i got a new project, wich i belive i would be able to make.

But to make this intresting, i will announce my project and make it open for everyone to partisipate.

I got this idea after reading a couple of post, where people asked if there is anything they can help with. After all, trial and error is the best way to learn (for me atleast).

Please keep the flaming to PM only, after all this is a support post

Config of ADSL modem

I got 120 ADSL modem that need to be reconfigured.

This can be done with a CD, but i thought it would be more fun to do it with AutoIt.

What i found out so far, is that the config file of the modem, is located in a subfolder called DL and is called user.ini. I can access this file by using FTP.

I have now created a new user.ini for all the modems, but the file need some user information and also be uploaded to the modem by the user.

1) GUI/Inputbox that will prompt for the Username and Password (Confirm password)

2) Iniwrite the Username and Password to user.ini (case sensitive)

3) Upload the user.ini file to the modem (IP:192.168.0.254/DL)

This has to be done with no admin rights or the use of RunAsSet.

Modification of the user.ini file:

[ env.ini ]

set var=PPPoE_userid value=""

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=""

If you found this to be a intresting project, don't hasitate to ask me for more information.

Questions:

- Can the user upload to the same FTP server as you can?

- How will the user receive the AutoIt3 script? Through mail? (This is not that important)

Maybe I am missing something, or maybe I am just out of it, or maybe I'm not, but I am not seeing why this would be an 'open project' everything you described here seems like it should be pretty easy as you have layed everything out, all you have to do is code it in.

So... whats up? You want help, or what?

1) Its not uploaded to a FTP server, its uploaded to their modem using FTP.

2) Before we start to use the new settings, i will make a "push" using the login script. So when the new settings should be used, i can tell the users to just click on the au3 file.

I agree with you, it might seems like its all layed up. Sorry for that.

What i tried to describe above is just the procedure that needs to be done. Not how its done. But after all, yea you are probably right, its mostly scripting. The changes i can think of right now, is the GUI for the username and password. :/

Anyway, alot of scripts that does the samething looks different.

And i belive project like this can be usefull for everyone.

For example, one user come up with a working ftp send, while another user look at the command, and recommend to add something extra to it.

After all, this might been a stupid idea.

Nah the idea isnt stupid. Dont take my question that way. I was just wanting to know the purpose. I actually want to know how to FTP, I know there are command line programs, but I like using self contained stuff .

As far as the GUI goes you dont need a GUI just use the InputBox(). That is enough to do what you want unless you want some kind of special buttons and images and gfx on there.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It does seem that way. Though from everything he has explained I dont think there is that much to code. Relatively easy.

Sorry for making it look like that. It was not my idea with this.

I just thought it would be fun to start a small project and see everyones process.

As i said above, this was a stupid idea, and i will make the script myself, and later show you guys how i did it. And maybe then you can add comments.

Once again sorry for trying to be a leech.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

If you are as you say, then you werent trying to be a leech and there is no reason for an apology. Dont beat yourself up so much.

The best way is to write the script yourself then ask everyone to comment and stuff. I certainly dont mind doing that for ya. I know in the Scripts and Scraps section people do that all the time.

Please do let us know how this goes, and let us know if you need any help, as we would be more than willing to help in any way we can.

As you can see above my iniwrite value got a = in it, wich mezz everything up.

Cause if i run it twice, it will not overwrite the line, but instead add a new line in the ini file.

If User is Donald the iniwrite would be:

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

If i then run it again with user Duck it would add a new line.

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Duck

I belive the one in red is the problem, right?

Can someone please help, before i go nuts here

EDIT: Changed the code the latest.

1. It's not smart to write "=" as an INI key.

2. I'll try to improve your script. Hang on.

[Doxie]

Shady, the "=" is not my idea

It has to be like that to be used by the modem.

Edit:

I also noticed that it write all the ini stuff twice

When i run the file once, it looks like this:

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

And if i run it again (without deleting the ini file)

It would look like this:

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

set var=PPPoE_userid value=Donald

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=Duck

1. You write to an INI file called "user.ini but I don't see it in the RunWait function.

2. Maybe you could delete the file when the user enters an incorrect password so it doesn't add a new line.

If that's unacceptable, you could FileCopy the INI file to a safe place.

And choose not to overwrite, so it copies only once.

And each time the script is ran, you FileCopy the copied file to the right place.

So it doesn't contain multiple lines, and the original settings are preserved.

My version is attached. The things I said above are not included.

I just improved the script.

1) In RunWait you can see i call Modem.txt, and at the top of the script you can see i create a file called Modem.txt (only FTP commands) and then it upload the user.ini

2) The file i got is containing alot more then user/pass, so just deleting the file would not work. Or maybe.

This might work:

1) Use login script to push Au3 + User.ini file

2) When they run Au3, make a copy of User.ini

3) Write the User/Password to the copy

4) If wrong Password, delete copy And start from 2) again.

But the question is, how will it handle the original user.ini file, that already contain:

set var=PPPoE_userid value=""

set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=""

Will it add the value or just create two new lines in the user.ini file?

[SlimShady]

The question is: Who decided to have this exact format in the INI file

set var=PPPoE_userid value=""
set var=PPPoE_passwrd value=""

And why?

Because it's not convenient.

I guess its Alcatel, the company that is making Speedtouch modem.

Edit:

I could not attach .ini file, so i just copy/paste the whole file here.

This one is working much better:

IniWrite("user.ini", "env.ini", "set var", "PPPoE_userid value=" & $username)

Exept that i can't have to line look like that.

Edit:

And delete the first line in the .ini file

Is there any macro for Mac adress, such as @Mac or something like that?

[SlimShady]

I've managed to retrieve the MAC Address using AutoIt and a batch file.

Here it is:

$MAC_addr = _GetMAC()
MsgBox(64, "Test", "MAC address: " & $MAC_addr)

Func _GetMAC()
   Local $IniFile
   $IniFile = @TempDir & "\SysInfo.ini"
   If NOT FileExists(@TempDir & "\SysInfo.bat") Then
      Local $OpenBatch
      $OpenBatch = FileOpen(@TempDir & "\SysInfo.bat", 2)
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, '@ECHO OFF')
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, 'SET INIFILE=%TEMP%\SysInfo.ini')
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, 'ECHO [SystemInfo]> %INIFILE%')
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, 'FOR /F "tokens=1,2 delims=:" %%I IN (''IPCONFIG /ALL ^| FIND /I "physical"'') DO SET MAC=%%J')
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, 'SET MAC=%MAC:~1,-1%')
         FileWriteLine($OpenBatch, 'ECHO MacAddr=%MAC%>> %INIFILE%')
      FileClose($OpenBatch)
   EndIf
   RunWait(@TempDir & "\SysInfo.bat", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE)
   Return INIRead($IniFile, "SystemInfo", "MacAddr", "")
EndFunc

Now I know how your ini file looks like, I updated the script.

I don't think it will work using INIRead/INIWrite, so you'll have to use FileRead, FileWrite.

Edited December 29, 2004 by SlimShady

[Doxie]

Exellent, that one is working perfectly.

The script is almost finished now.

There is a small chance it can be a mezz, but i have to convince everyone here at the IT dep that its not "that" big chance

Edit:

I downloaded your last script, and i can't see that you used FileWrite/Read?

I attach the one i'm working on.

Edited December 29, 2004 by Doxie

[SlimShady]

Is it working or not?

Do I need to convert the INIRead/Write to FileRead/Write?
