no4ndth3n Posted September 6, 2006 Posted September 6, 2006 Exactly why I put this one on the back shelf more than once. Too bad, it has great potential. If I remember correctly, Novell had a command line tool that did exactly this way back. If anyone can figure out a better, faster way, I'd love to collaborate on this one. I don't know one network manager who wouldn't plop down $$ for a tool this useful. Have you tried psloggedon.exe from Sysinternals? psloggedon [\\computer | user] with \\computer it will tell you who is logged on to the computer with user it will tell you what PC's that person is logged into...although it does take a while Hope that helps.
sandyd Posted September 7, 2006 Posted September 7, 2006 I've done this before using psloggedon on the result from a netview, but if you are querying 200+ machines it takes a long time to get the info. You also have to ping the machine in question first to see if its alive, or else it takes even longer. ----[ SandyD ]---
JSThePatriot Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 I wanted to give everyone an update! I have gotten the main portion of the program converted to OnEventMode.. I will leave the functions in GUIGetMsg() mode, and will have to see how that works out. The GUI looks amazing! Kudos to everyone who has had a part in it!

jp10558 Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 I've tested this tool, pretty sweet. My current problem is that it seems to work ok for everything but the system information - on that it seems to hang/freeze up. You can still change tabs and look around, but the windows hourglass is on all the time then. I have to kill it and restart, and rescan everything to make it do any other machines then. It would be nice if you could click a cancel button to stop trying to get information like for the domain polling. Also, it would be really nice if you could have it on startup ask for a Domain Administrator credential to run under, but not so I have to find the program and do a runas...

All of this is planned, and once we get the GUI worked out, it will be implimented. Keep the suggestions coming!The reason Admin Tool crashed there, is usually related to the WMI service on the target machine. If for whatever reason WMI cannot be contacted, it bugs out. In the new version, I'm also going to try to include a way to search for the information from the machines registry. It will also have improved error checking.

When trying to export data, selecting all data (at least with everything but system data selected), nothing at all happens. When saying just machine data I get an error on $SaveFile="" used before being declared and the whole thing exits. This is with save as text/default, I haven't figured out how to save as other types yet.

I'll watch for the new version also.

You also have to ping the machine in question first to see if its alive, or else it takes even longer. look in the registry at the winlogon section and this way it is versy easy to read the current logged on user registry : [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon] "DefaultUserName"="Logged on User" ServicesPE|LoadVMDK
