How to detect domain name


 Share

Recommended Posts

I am running a script that checks whet domain the machine is part of. This will tell me if the machine is on its own workgroup p.c name or actually part of a domain .

I have tried

@LogonDNSDomain Logon DNS Domain.

@LogonDomain Logon Domain.

@LogonServer Logon server.

If I am part of a domain called Mydomain.co.uk and log into the machine as a local machine account against the local machine name called "Computer1" the above commands will show "Computer1" "not Mydomain.co.uk"

I am looking for a way to find which domain the computer is connected to regardless what it is currently logged in as. I have found some registry areas that state the name of the domain I am looking for but not sure of the consistency of these keys across other platforms....

Keys I found

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Group Policy\History

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Telephony

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters\DNSRegisteredAdapters\{9C4CD23B-3AF0-4897-BE2A-3E3E2633FD28}

Is there a function / Macro that I am missing in Autoit that I would prefer to use similar to what @LogonDomain would give out

Thanks

$ComputerDomain = _DomainComputerBelongs()
MsgBox(0 , @LogonDomain , 'Domain: ' & $ComputerDomain)

Func _DomainComputerBelongs($strComputer = "localhost")
    ; Generated by AutoIt Scriptomatic
    $Domain = ''
    $wbemFlagReturnImmediately = 0x10
    $wbemFlagForwardOnly = 0x20

    $objWMIService = ObjGet("winmgmts:\\" & $strComputer & "\root\CIMV2")
    If Not IsObj($objWMIService) Then Return SetError(1, 0, '')
    $colItems = $objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystem", "WQL", _
                                            $wbemFlagReturnImmediately + $wbemFlagForwardOnly)

    If IsObj($colItems) then
        For $objItem In $colItems
            $Domain = $objItem.Domain
        Next
    Endif
    Return $Domain
EndFunc

Thanks,,,,

I had already identified in the first post I can just read the registry - This is fine however does not provide me with 100% consistency as these values can and have been changed in my scripts especially in the winlogon part of the registry for auto logins etc.

I prefer to pull the information in a more structured way ....

I think going down APi is the way with objects....

Thanks for your responses...

Try this too.

Msgbox(0,GetRootDSE(),FriendlyRootDSE(GetRootDSE()))

Func GetRootDSE()
    $RootDSE = ObjGet("LDAP://RootDSE")
    If IsObj($RootDSE) Then Return $RootDSE.get( "DefaultNamingContext" )
EndFunc

Func FriendlyRootDSE($strRootDSE)
    $strRootDSE = StringReplace($strRootDSE,"DC=","")
    $strRootDSE = StringReplace($strRootDSE,",",".")
    Return $strRootDSE
EndFunc

Thanks....

will be using this script to do what I need to achieve..... I prefer this sort of structured script rather than a registry pull....

Will also test this other script from spudw2k....

Thanks again for your input
