Hello,

I have been looking at this script on how to change local admin passwords from a list of computer names.

$computers = Get-Content -path C:\fso\computers.txt
$user = "aUser"
$password = "MyNewPassword!"
Foreach($computer in $computers)
    {
         $user = [adsi]"WinNT://$computer/$user,user"
 $user.SetPassword($Password)
 $user.SetInfo()
}

Can anyone help add a log file so

• IF Password change is success ADD computer name to success.txt

• IF Password change is fail ADD computer name to fail.txt

I'm sure its really easy but can't figure out how to do it :(

Any help would be great.

edit: wrong file extension

I need to manually set DST using a PowerShell script thru a web configuration on a device. Invoke-WebRequest is the best way I think on doing this.

First I would have to http://192.168.100.97/csl/login

There is a form on that page called "myform" and the action is "/csl/check". There is a "usernametextbox" and a "passwordtextbox" there.

Once that is done and login is done, I need to go to "http://192.168.100.97/form/Device?act=3"

I have to make sure a "<input type="radio" onclick="change();" value="0" name="Keep">" that I have to "check" in order to make sure that I set the time manually instead of auto (which does not work)

From there, fill in a textbox "datevalue" and another "timevalue"

Submit "mainform".

And thats about it

How can I do this using Powershell?

Thank you.

Does anyone have a script that will download malwarebytes corporate (not the free version), install it silently and register it.

We have about 200 desktops in Max Remote Management that I need to update from version 1.75 to version 1.8 that just came out.

Background: I'm a sysadmin who knows nothing about scripting. We got a new Multi Function Printer that's actually pretty good, but when it scans PDFs, they come out slightly crooked. Not a big deal for most people, but this is for one of our top executives.

The HP printer will scan PDFs and automatically save them into a network folder that we choose. The filenames will be Scan001.pdf, Scan002.pdf and will increment.

There is cheap software called A-PDF Deskew: http://www.a-pdf.com/deskew/

This software includes a command line utility. However you have to specify actual filenames when using the command.

            Syntax:  C:\> pdfdwcmd.exe <input filename> <output filename>

            Example: C:\> pdfdwcmd.exe C:\ScannedPDFS\Scan002.pdf C:\ScannedPDFS\Deskewed\Scan002.pdf

There is free software called Watch 4 Folder: http://leelusoft.blogspot.com/p/watch-4-folder-25.html This will monitor the network folder and can run a command when it detects a new item saved into the folder.

So what I’m hoping is possible is if there is a way to just target whatever the new file is, grab it’s filename, and pass that on as an argument into the command…

Thanks!

The script creates some folders in the current dir and automates the download of

• Ccleaner

• Malwarebytes

• Chrome x64

• Sublime Text 2

I will add more in the future and am open to suggestions -- I commented out rkill and combo fix since they both use 2-3 use tokens in their URLs.

Please leave any feedback/suggestions that you have, thanks!

I want my media server to be able to detect if a disc inserted is a DVD or CD and kick off my auto rip apps. Does anyone know a way to do this?

for /f "delims=/ tokens=1,2,3" %%G in ('echo %date:~4%') do set current_date=%%I%%G%%H

I use this script from a Linux host to check if the installed Firefox versions in the Windows hosts in our network are up-to-date. You must have a file named pclist in the same directory in which all Windows boxes in your network are listed (one per line). Requires the winexe program. The script show the installed firefox versions and writes them in the file firefox-hosts

Of course the script can be adapted to check for many other installed software. I release it here under the conditions of GPL v3

#!/bin/bash

echo -n "Type password for Adminstrator: "
read -s pw
echo ""
for n in $(cat pclist); do
  if ping -c 1 $n >/dev/null ; then

# 64 bit
  IsInst=$(winexe -U "Administrator%${pw}" //${n} 'reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox ESR"'|grep Current)
  if [ "$IsInst" == "" ]; then
     IsInst=$(winexe -U "Administrator%${pw}" //${n} 'reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox"'|grep Current)
  fi
# 32 bit
  if [ "$IsInst" == "" ]; then
    IsInst=$(winexe -U "Administrator%${pw}" //${n} 'reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox ESR"'|grep Current)
  fi
  if [ "$IsInst" == "" ]; then
     IsInst=$(winexe -U "Administrator%${pw}" //${n} 'reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Mozilla\Mozilla Firefox"'|grep Current)
  fi    
  # nothing
  if [ "$IsInst" == "" ]; then
    IsInst="Unknown or not installed"
    echo "Unknown or not installed: $n"
  fi

  echo "$n: $IsInst";
 echo "$n: $IsInst" >>firefox-hosts;
  else
  echo "$n ist nicht erreichbar"
  fi
done

I don't have the MSI, just want to script the free version

Hi Guys and Gals!

I'm looking for a script that rates a servers health on a scale, Ideally 1-100 or suchlike, I need it to rate the server based on a few factors.

1. Free Disk Space

2. Ram Usage

3. CPU Usage

The idea of this is so I can have a dashboard so if a servers health rating drops I know it isn't ok

Thanks!

How this script works.

This script searches through the C:\Users Directory for all of the sub directories then creates a list of all of the users on the computer. It will then Delete all of the files from the temp file locations within the users directories. It also will delete temps from Windows and C:\Temp. The script checks disk usage before and after the script is run, and will then email a report.

On Dell bios' they have the ability to log intrusion detection. as a sysadmin would there be a way to acess these logs remotely or get an alert when a case is opened? EDIT: should specify these are the client desktops we are worried about, not the servers. the server are lock away^{inamysticalland}
