#104952 - 2003-09-20 06:00 AM Registry Search Output
RVS42 RVS42 Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-09-20 Posts: 17	[Moderator (Sealeopard): Moved topic from 'Scripts' to 'General' forum due to lack of script in body] I have the registry search down, but does anyone have any tips/suggestions on how to append those results to a text/.csv? Does that need to be run in a logon script or is there a way to scan the network at any given time? Any help would be greatly appreciated. [ 22. September 2003, 21:13: Message edited by: sealeopard ]

RVS42 RVS42 Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-09-20 Posts: 17	Great. Thank you for the info. I found a sample from Robbie that I'm using as an example, but I am still learning. How do you scan the network at any given time? I don't know how to do that at all. Thanks again.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	for this you have many ways. with AD it's simple (doh, not), you just crawl it. with old good NT you need to scan network environment. like, netview2() and then use that info to read the registry. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

RVS42 RVS42 Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-09-20 Posts: 17	No AD. W2k domain though. This is waht I have, if you don't mind reviewing. Again, I'm using Robbie's example, don't want to take any undo credit. Please be easy, I'm a rookie. ;Check for Patch $regkey = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Windows 2000\SP5\KB824146", "Description" $patch="\\server\patch\%computername%\patch.txt" $logdir="\\server\patch\%computername%" $patch= ReadValue("$regkey", "Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB824146") IF $proxen = "1" md "$logdir" Redirectoutput("$patch",1) ? "**********************************" ? "Search for Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB824146" ? "**********************************" ? "Time : "+ @TIME ? "Date : "+ @DATE ? "Registry Key : "+ $regkey+"Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB824146" ? "Registry Value : "+ $patch ? "Computer Name : "+ %COMPUTERNAME% ? "User Name : "+ %USERNAME% Endif exit [ 20.

so, your inventory piece would be something like:

;hotfix Scanner
;########################
$hotfix="KB824146"
$type="SP5" ; pre sp5 hotfix

$rc=open(1,"\\server\patch\"+$hotfix,5)
$regkey = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Windows 2000\"+$type+"\"+$hotfix
for each $machine in netview2()
	if "Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB824146"=ReadValue("\\"+$machine+"\"+$regkey, "Description")
		$rc=writeline(1,$machine+","+ReadValue("\\"+$machine+"\"+$regkey, "InstalledDate"+@crlf)
	else
		$rc=writeline(1,$machine+",not installed"+@crlf)
	Endif
next
$rc=close()

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	not sure what you mean. if you talk about $rc, it is not command but variable. it gets feeded with the return codes of the functions thus they won't be thrown onto console window or such. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

RVS42 RVS42 Fresh Scripter Registered: 2003-09-20 Posts: 17	I copied the script you supplied and am trying to use it. However, it errors on that RC line and reports "error in parameters." I hate to keep bugging, but it is extremely important (in my world at least) to get this running. Not sure what step to take next.

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	you might want to look at kixtart manual. $ - variable @ - macro looking for @crlf macro in the manual explains what it means. I give you a change to check it up, so you will learn to use it. you could also use the keyword ref: http://kixtart.org/manual_index.html _________________________ ! download KiXnet

Lonkero Lonkero KiX Master Guru Registered: 2001-06-05 Posts: 22346 Loc: OK	quick quess is that you use so old kixtart that it does not support @crlf. but that sounds weird as it would be years old version. _________________________ ! download KiXnet

found another error in the script, this should work better:

;hotfix Scanner
;########################
$hotfix="KB824146"
$type="SP5" ; pre sp5 hotfix

$rc=open(1,"\\server\patch\"+$hotfix,5)
$regkey = "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates\Windows 2000\"+$type+"\"+$hotfix
for each $machine in netview2()
	if "Windows 2000 Hotfix - KB824146"=ReadValue("\\"+$machine+"\"+$regkey, "Description")
		$rc=writeline(1,$machine+","+ReadValue("\\"+$machine+"\"+$regkey, "InstalledDate")+@crlf)
	else
		$rc=writeline(1,$machine+",not installed"+@crlf)
	Endif
next
$rc=close(1)
