WSH Network Administrator Sample Script

This WSH network sample demonstrates how a typical network administrator may use a script on several remote machines on the network. The sample script performs useful administrative tasks including:

  • Connecting the machines to a network printing device

  • Setting the newly connected printing device as the default printer

  • Creating a common public folder on the machines

  • Copying files to the newly created folder

  • Establishing the newly created folder as a share using Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).

    Note

    WMI is a powerful, sophisticated technology based on Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM). WMI is primarily used for accessing and instrumenting management information in an enterprise environment. For more information on WMI, see the WMI SDK at (https://msdn.microsoft.com).

The Administrator must establish the necessary security settings on the remote machines. For more information, see Setting up Remote WSH. Next the administrator must copy and paste the sample into the scripting editor and change the constants to reflect the corresponding network paths and machine names. Finally the administrator can run the script.

Procedures

To run this sample

  1. Establish the necessary security settings on the remote machines.

  2. Copy the AdminScript.vbs script below into your scripting text editor.

  3. Change the constants to reflect your network paths and machine names.

  4. Replace remmachine with the applicable remote machine name and run the script:

    var oController = new ActiveXObject"WSHController"
    var oProcess = oController.CreateScript "c:\MyLocalDir\\AdminScript.vbs", "remmachine"
    oProcess.Execute()
    while (oProcess.Status != 2) 
         WScript.Sleep(100)
    WScript.Echo"Done" 
    

AdminScript.vbs Sample

' Remote WSH Admin Sample  AdminScript.vbs
'
' This sample code does a few common administrative tasks which a 
' network administrator might want to do to a number of the machines
' on his or her network:  it creates a public directory, populates
' it with some files and shares the directory out.  It also sets
' up the machines default printer connection.

' Note that in the interests of keeping this example code small, error
' handling has been omitted.  Actual production code should use
' appropriate error handling as many of these operations could fail;
' the disks could run out of space, for instance.
