Hack 14 Desktop Checker
Here''''s a useful script to
quickly display the configuration of a remote system for
troubleshooting or inventory purposes.
This handy script will attempt
to gather various Windows NT/2000/XP/2003
operating-system attributes and display them in a coherent way to
assist in troubleshooting. I highly suggest modifying the
customization variables located within the script. To edit this text
file, just open it with Notepad (leave Word Wrap turned off). Even if
you have no experience with VBScript, you should find the changes
quite easy to make. Please read the comments for different sections
to make the tool viable for your organization.
This tool was intended to use only standard API calls and nothing
from third-party COM objects. This keeps the tool lightweight and
portable as only a text file. I suggest putting the tool into a local
directory by itself so that the HTML pages it creates
don''''t get out of hand. If a machine does not have
WMI 1.5, then a lot of info might be missing. You will get similar
results if you don''''t have administrator rights on
the remote box. This script will not work on any Windows 9x operating
systems.
The Code
You can download this script as DesktopChecker.vbs
from the O''''Reilly web site at http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/winsvrhks/:

Running the Hack
To run this hack, simply double-click on the
DesktopChecker.vbs file in Windows Explorer (or
on a shortcut to the file on your desktop). Then, type the name of
the remote computer you want to query using either its NetBIOS name,
DNS name, or IP address. At this point, Internet Explorer will open
and display a page titled "myITforum Helpdesk
Diagnostic Tool," followed by a series of dialog
boxes that show the progress of the script (you
don''''t need to click OK to close these dialog boxes,
because they close automatically). Once the final dialog box
appears"The myITforum Helpdesk Diagnostic
Tool script is done"click OK and refresh the
web page to view the information.
Here''''s some sample output generated when the script
was run on a workstation using Domain Admin credentials. The target
machine is a Windows Server 2003 machine named
SRV230. The output of the script is in the form
of an HTML page named srv230, which is
created in the same directory where the script itself resides, but
the output has been reformatted here as text to make it easier to
include in this book.
