Hi everyone,
I'm in a bit of a bind... I have some batch scripting ability but next
to no skill in VBS. I had a set of scripts that would:
Query the registry key
HKLM\SOFTWARE\M icrosoft\SMS\Cl ient\Configurat ion\Client Application
Launchers\Hardw are Inventory Agent
If the value returned is 0x79726f74 then it would stop the SMS Client
Service (clisvc), wait for this to complete, and then delete two
registry keys:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\M icrosoft\SMS\Cl ient\Configurat ion\Client Application
Launchers\Hardw are Inventory Agent
HKLM\SOFTWARE\M icrosoft\SMS\Cl ient\Client Components\Hard ware
Inventory Agent
5. Report back to a file on \\hostserver\MS KB\28552\
We also had a VBS that ran great, but required WMI 1.5. Thus comes the
caveat... the targets are our legacy desktops running NT4 Workstation,
WMI v1, and IE5. The script needs to run at logon (we use psexec to
get elevated rights), and definately has to report back for auditing
purposes.
Does anyone know how to do this? I am completely tapped.
TIA!

You don't need WMI to read a key/value and/or delete
a key/value. You can use WScript.Shell object's RegRead
and RegDelete.
If you want sample code:
WScript.Shell samples: http://www.jsware.net/jsware/scripts.html#shell
A package of VBS classes, one of which is for Registry functions: http://www.jsware.net/jsware/scripts.html#classpk
I don't know about "reporting back" to a remote file.
If you mean write to a file you can use the FileSystemObjec t's
Textstream object, but I don't know the syntax for that in
dealing with a remote file.
This is a VB group, though, not VBS. You might try
microsoft.publi c.scripting.vbs cript
microsoft.publi c.scripting.wsh
if you need more help.

The idea is to fifo pipe network syslog into a MySQL database backend.
The php scripts reference the database, and print stuff to the screen.

Dear folks,
I need some help with using the sscanf() function. I need to parse a
string which has several parameters given in a "A=... B=... C=..." way,
and each has a different type (one is a text string, another is a
decimal, next one is float, etc.).
I have GCC 4.0.1 on Mac OS X Tiger.
Here is an example of what I am trying to do.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
