caswell caswell Lurker Registered: 2001-11-16 Posts: 4	Does the Ingroup function work with local groups? I'd like to check for membership in the local administrators group before trying to apply patches, etc. I've tried the following with inconsistent results (in a script launched with the /f switch): If InGroup("\\" + @WKSTA + "\administrators") <> 1 MESSAGEBOX ("Your Logon does not have permissions to perform a vital update!!", "Contact Technical Support Services 6627!", 48) goto "endit" endif

"Admin Group: " if ingroup("\\" + @wksta + "\administrators") "True" else "False" endif ? "Local Admin: " if localadmin() "True" else "False" endif function LocalAdmin() $LocalAdmin=ingroup('@wksta\'+sidtoname('S-1-5-32-544'))-1+@inwin endfunction _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

I was doing some testing back then, and there is a script in the top post that checks for local admin three different ways. [edit dang... Les you just beat me!] Edited by Al_Po (2004-05-04 07:44 PM)

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	Well.. I went with your answer so you are the true winner here. Still, one must wonder why the original code does not work. Is it a localization issue, or KiX 3.xx returning a 2? _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.
