31290 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Hi everyone, Hope you are doing fine by the time being :/ Well, seems that I'm running into an issue while trying to add an Active domain security group to a remote computer that has a space in it. I've been searching for quite a while now and seems that my search did not get well. The ideal solution for me would be to use Psexec.exe as I can run it with my admin credentials whereas using WMIServices, I don't know how to launch that with these credentials. Here's what I wrote so far: $sADGroupName as a space in it and there's nothing I can do about, we have to respect a naming convention but it would be "Admins REMOTEMACHINENAME" Func f_AddADGroup2localAdmin() SplashTextOn("", "Adding " & $sADGroupName & " to the Local Administrators Group.", 1000, 100, -1, -1, 33, -1, -1, 700) $sCommand = $sResources & 'PsExec -accepteula \\' & $sServName & ' net localgroup Administrators MYDOMAIN\"' & $sADGroupName & '" /add' RunAsWait($sTechGID, "MYDOMAIN", $sTechPWD, 4, $sCommand, @SW_SHOW) SplashOff() ; f_MoveADObject() End Func What is weird is when I output the $sCommand variable, the space is in here but it seems not to be passed in my psexec command when I run it. Another thing I saw is that 4 times out of 10, psexec does not even launch. So I was also wondering if there could be another way to add the "spaced" group with my admin credentials on a remote server other than psexec. Thanks all in advance for the lights you may provide to me and keep safe! -31290- ~~~ Doom Shall Never Die, Only The Players ~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subz Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 Shouldn't it be '..."MYDomain\' & $sADGroupName & '"...' 31290 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
31290 Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share Posted March 20, 2020 My goodness, you were right... That was the thing. I probably stayed too much looking at this line and to be honest, I'm not the best at this Thank you Sir.
