    Select Case - Bad Style?

    I use this form from time to time instead of using complex "If...End If" statements. Is it inefficient? Bad style? The path to eternal damnation? Dim strMyString Const strOne = "String 1" Const strTwo = "String 2" Const strThree = "String 3" strMyString = "Some string data from another...

    Rename Group Policy with Win 7 RSAT - Need Verification

    I am getting an odd behavior on my Win7 client... When I try to rename an existing GPO using the GP Management MMC, the system interprets a lower case "t" as a refresh command. All other letters and upper case "T" work. Rename from any other OS has no issue. Can anyone replicate this issue...

    WMI ActiveScriptConsumer - No WScript - Alternates?

    I have a script that will be used as a permanent WMI consumer. Unfortunately, I need some features of the WScript object that aren't available because the ActiveScriptConsumer does not run the script under WScript.exe or CScript.exe. See...

    Microsoft iSCSI MPIO... Network requirements

    I've looked at the MS documentation and several other sources and I can't get a clear picture of what the network requirements are for MPIO under the MS iSCSI initiator. Do I need a separate subnet for each path? Do multiple targets need to be configured (pointing to the same luns)? PSC...

    Username / Password entry with masking

    I cobbled together some code from different sources and I'd like to hear comments about my approach and methodology. This script is fully functional. The main point that bugs me about this script is that I have to generate a temporary file to get it to run. It also runs into issues on Windows...

    Refresh / Reload PATH while executing script...

    I'm having a problem with a script which installs some software (among other things). Once the new software is installed, the script calls a configuration batch file provided with the software. Unfortunately, the batch job fails because it expects its application to be in the system's PATH...

    Sorting OUs

    I currently have a script that pulls a list of OUs into an ADODB RecordSet. In the query I pull the DN and canonicalName of the OU. I then take the canonicalName of the OU and sort the list using a bubble sort function. I've got approximately 180 OUs and I've found that this process isn't...

    ADSI Syntax?

    I don't understand why the following code works: Option Explicit Dim strDN, member, objGroup strDN = "CN=Domain Admins,CN=Users,DC=domain,DC=tld" Set objGroup = GetObject("LDAP://" & strDN) WScript.Echo "sAMAccountName: " & objGroup.sAMAccountName WScript.Echo "cn: " & objGroup.cn...

    Add Partition / Move Squid Cache - IPCop

    I'll be up front here. I'm a complete newb when it comes to *nix systems. I downloaded a VM of a pre-built IPCop install and everything is well, but I don't think that the included partition for the AdvProxy / Update Accellerator feature is big enough. Windows updates and service packs can be...

    Determine Encryption / Compression of NTFS Folder?

    I'm looking for a way to determine whether or not a folder is encrypted or compressed. The Scripting.FileSystemObject object doesn't appear to be able to expose this information. Anyone tried this? PSC Governments and corporations need people like you and me. We are samurai. The keyboard...

    Logon hours expiration... Notification?

    OK... If any of you have ever managed a Novell system, there was a capability of automatically sending notifications to users that their logon hours were about to expire and to log off. Is there an equivalent in Windows? I would like users to get a pop-up message on their desktop about 5-10...

    Problem with logical operator...

    Maybe I'm just broken, but I don't understand why the "or" operator won't work for me... Doesn't work.. dim arrServers(10), intReturn ... populate array ... intReturn = InputBox("Type Server Number") If intReturn < LBound(arrServers) + 1 Or intReturn > UBound(arrServers) + 1 Then MsgBox("You...

    Opinion of DoubleTake or Veritas Cluster with Exchange 2003?

    Has anyone on this forum used a bit-level clustering application like DoubleTake with Exchange? 1) If yes, what was your opinion of the product? 2) Was it easy to install / configure? 3) Does it fail-over properly? 4) Why did you choose this type of cluster over Microsoft Clustering? PSC...

    How to determine if array is Null

    I'm working on a WMI script that polls all network adapters on a computer. If 2 conditions are true (IP is enabled and NIC is connected) then get the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway from the NIC. (These fields are arrays. I acquire them by using the Join function.) Well... In the...

    Certain groups have &quot;Send as&quot; permission by default

    I just performed a clean install of Windows Server 2003 with Exchange 2003 on a new test domain. I have been examining the ACE's on default and new user object that I am creating in the directory and I'm finding that the following groups have the "Send As" permission: Administrators Domain...

    SMTP Inter-site Transport missing from Sites and Services

    I have a client who asked me to evaluate the health of their Active Directory. A strange thing that I've found is that the SMTP Inter-site Transport is missing from ADSS. I looked for the object in ADSI edit and it is missing. It appears that the object can be easily deleted. Any know if...

    Cannot modify DC in RUS (Enterprise Configuration)

    I have a client who asked me to evaluate the health of their AD and Exchange. They reported to me an issue that I have never seen before. When you attempt to change the domain controller that is used by RUS for the Enterprise Configuration, you get an error: The operation failed. ID no...

    MSDSS, Services for Netware, and ADC

    I'm preparing for a complex migration from Novell with MS Exchange 5.5 to Windows 2000 with Exchange 2000. I've used the Active Directory Connector to perform Exchange migrations previously and I'm comfortable using it. I'm planning to use Microsoft's Services for Netware (which includes MS...
