what do you think?? |

The PC Names are blurry. My NAV CE gives me that and more out of the box. What would EPO give you? |

Hi Rad, This is intriguing because I wrote something very very similar nearly a year ago using KiXGUI. I then rewrote it more recently using KiXforms. The question I have for you is how do you execute the McAfee sdat updater on the remote machine. I resorted to shelling out to a third party utility called "atonce". Have you managed to do this using pure COM? Kind regards, Rod. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
push the sdat and/or xdat to the client PC and RmtExec() it see: http://www.kixtart.org/board/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=004070 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Rad, Good Stuff.. Can you put in Exclusions of files/folders from scanning like that of ePO? Thanks, Kent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Very nice Rad. Does it find the new Virusscan Enterprise 7.0? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I dunno.. haven't tried I'm sure they changed it enough that it doesn't Exclusions can be done, as it basically just executes the command line scanner. It would just require another form to pop up so those options can be entered. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
How much for it in zip format? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I have the latest build at: http://www.wheelerfam.com/Documents/McAfeeManager.kix I need to link it on my kixtart page, but you can get it from the above link It is still a bit of a work in progress, but all the functions work. You need to provide the engine only superdat, and the DAT only superdat... from McAfee's Downloads If you look closely, you'll see a remarkable resemblance to Shawn's Phone.kix [ 03.

Thanks, i'll take a look |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Rad, Can't you parse off the engine version like Paul does here? Automating Virus Protection with KiXtart Scripts Thanks! Kent |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
what do you mean?? Do you mean using the real superdat?? The problem with that is that you cannot tell what engine is inside. the engine.exe files are named for their version, just like the dat files are. The current engine is 4.1.60, but the last superdat I dl'ed was sdat4185... the numbers didn't match [ 04. January 2003, 02:14: Message edited by: Radimus ] |

Les, Maybe I'll check into writing a script that can REPAIR a corrupted NAV which the console can't fix. That would be cool |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Rad, Maybe I am wrong, but why wouldn't this work? code:Thanks,; Get the present SuperDAT filename Kent [ 04. January 2003, 04:29: Message edited by: kdyer ] |

|||||||
I looked at it some more... My initial problem was that our network never pulled Superdats unless it contained an engine update. So I was wrong there. However, since a eng+dat superdat is almost 4.5 mb, and a dat-only superdat is 1.7 mb, it is more efficient/faster to use the dat only version. Eng-only dats are available(about 3mb), but as the engine is rarely changed, every few months usually, those could be pushed when/where necessary. I've updated my Kixtart page with links to this file (and Inquisitor) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Hi Rad, Would you mind if we posted your code at the KiXforms Script Archive, and if not, would it be better to wait until you have developed it to your satisfaction. Rod. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
If you would like to, be my guest... especially as I 'borrowed' most of the form code from Shawn's Phone.kix If you would however, put a footnote link to my page for any updates, that should be sufficient. The code pretty much works as advertised, but I am running on a 2k network, and I haven't tested any other OS's or versions of McAfee. Let the buyer beware There are a few tweaks I'd like to do to it: like auto selection after a check perhaps make the status bar at the bottom a little bigger and enable scroll possibly print a report I'd also like to rework the Function Update_Click() to make it more effifcient perhaps save the last location of the dats, so it wouldn't have to be browsed to every time... Any suggestions are certainly welcome [ 04. January 2003, 20:16: Message edited by: Radimus ] |

Nice page Radimus congratulations !! I tried to download Inquisitor.kix but I get error in page. It could be very useful for me to answer some Kixforms questions I have, is it available? Thanks very much again |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
dammit... I'll have to fix the links on the page. it is here: http://www.wheelerfam.com/Documents/Inquisitor.kix Kixfors is available at: http://www.kixforms.org/ [ 06. January 2003, 18:07: Message edited by: Radimus ] |

Check out McAfeeManager.kix link too. Thanks for the file my friend !! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
rad - do you have a rouge variable in your script inquisitor script there ? think its falling over on $txtUsername being undefined ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I just uploaded the most current versions of Inquisitor and McAfeeManager to the website. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
another update.. a fairly substantial one And it does handle VirusScan 7... no changes from 4.5.1 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Hey Rad... just a reminder. Still would be nice if you would put a date, time, version, changes entry at the top of your files on your website. Then anyone that came to see, or use them would know when they were last updated. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Yea, but then I'd have to edit the html page everytime I posted a new version... BTW, there is another update I just completed, and it is pretty well feature complete. The only thing is is really missing is some UI enhancements that will be available when Shawn releases the next version of kixforms to the general public and a fair amount of error handling... I have a bit of optimistic code in there now. New update at 21:47 EST |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
latest update... requires kixforms 2.20 basically adds toolbuttons and combobox list width |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Another minor update to the form... tightened the code a bit, etc. I'm pretty much done with this. Those of you waiting for a final product, can use this version... unless someone finds a show stopper. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
BTW... I just used this to push the 4242xdat.exe out. took almost 3 minutes to do update the 70 PCs on my LAN segment |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
RAD, How about non AD domains (NT4.0) how can we apply it ?. TIA SAM |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
replace the EnumOU() function with EnumDHCP() But you will need to hardcode in you DHCP servers and subnets... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
LASAD, Here are a few changes that can make the Mcafee Manager available with The NT4 Domain model 1. Add the NetView UDF 2. Change this Code code:To$ou = EnumOUs($ldap, 'computer') code:3. In the EnumOu UDF change this code$ou = "Your Domain" code:to$Computers = GetObject($area) code:I think that is all the changes I made. If this doesn't work let me know and I will double check the changes I made.$Computers = Netview($ou) [ 14. January 2003, 16:23: Message edited by: Will Hetrick ] |

Will, Thanks alot, it worked ok. Rad, very nice script, even though we do have SMS (and MCafee reports), this is good to have a fast query for DAT and engine versions. Thanks again, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
LASAD, Always glad to help. It's very rare for me to get something in with so many helpful people on this BBS. Radimus, As I was running this script, I noticed that it did not always give the right information Especially on servers. I am going to dig into what is being reported and what is really on it and let you know what I find. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I saw that also... but that would probably be due to the servers having NetShield instead of VirusScan. It does push out the update and execute it, but can't tell if successful. I was going to look into it also, but admin gets touchy if people start poking about in the servers registry... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
BTW... I was thinking of adding a 4th column... to report the status of the McShield service.. and perhaps to turn it on, if not running. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Here is the changes I made to correctly identify netshield 4.5, Viruscan 4.5 and Enterprise 7.0 machines Changed in the check click function code:to code: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Luckily Rad, I am the Script manager and the server manager here. So I can look these things up easily without someone yelling at me! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
The script looks nice, but how do i get it to work in a NT domain? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
If you would have read the thread carefully, you would have come across a post by Radimus stating quote: |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
I know sorry. But can you tell me where i can find joinarray() Because i can't find it on the board. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Is this it? http://www.scriptlogic.com/kixtart/FunctionLibrary_ViewFunction.aspx?ID=JoinArray |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
Raceeend, If you look upon further inspection, you will see I posted changes to make it work with an NT domain. The reason I made the changes instead of the Enumdhcp that radimus sugessted is we do not use DHCP in our environment. [ 18. January 2003, 19:57: Message edited by: Will Hetrick ] |

Ok, I finally managed to get the script running :-) I've got one problem though. When i set the engine & dat path and select a server the update button can't be selected. How can this be solved? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
The update button does not appear until you choose the domain and them check the machines. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
This is what i do: But as you can see the button can not be clicked. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||
what happens when you double-click in the listview? there are also a few variables set to tag whether an update/scan can occur. one of them may have been removed when you modified the code? look and see if this in in the bottom of Function Check_Click() $checkComplete = 1 Status("Check complete") $List.setfocus Double_Click() endfunction [ 22.
