AutoIt Programs
The purpose of this site is to provide a list of programs created in AutoIt. This list should contain only fully functional programs rather than pieces of code, or any type of library (UDF).
Active Directory tools
On one/multiple big sheet(s) you get users (columns) and groups (rows). The list is sorted descending by number of members so you get the users with most groups and the groups with most members on top of the page. You can filter by (multiple) samaccountname(s), department or you can create your own LDAP query filter. You can filter the resulting list of groups using a Regular Expression.
Displays all OUs in a TreeView. You can specify the FQDN of the OU where to start if you just want to see a subset.
ADAT is a tool to simplify common AD administration tasks. Every administration task has its own tab. It is easy to add new functions (tabs) to the tool. Some often used functions are already available: list users, computers, OUs. File ADAT.ini can be customized to hold the AD logon information if necessary. By default the user running the script connects to the AD.
ADCU displays two users and their group membership in two listviews. You can filter and export the data to Excel, Outlook mail and the clipboard.
ADGU displays two groups and their direct members in two listviews. You can filter and export the data to Excel, Outlook mail and the clipboard.
A long time ago I wanted a comfortable tool to get information of a specified user in our active directory. After some searching I decided to create my own tool and "Userinfo" was born.
- displays all useful information about the user (retrieved from active directory)
- displays the PCs/NCs the user has (if this information can be retrieved from a database)
- displays the list of neighbours of the current user
- compares the active directoy groups of the selected user with another user
- unlock a locked account
- german/english user interface
File Processing/Viewers
Many of my apps and scripts use CSV files as an output, and sometimes Excel was not available to read those files. On top of that, Excel by default does not expand the columns to fit the text properly. Melba23's StringSize UDF solves the column width issue, and czardas' _CSVSplit splits the data file better than a simple StringSplit.
- This script allows to edit CSV-files. Just doubleclick the entry you want to edit!
Network tools
In 2009 I was contracted through my employer to visit the Three Mile Island facility for several weeks to help their IT department join users to their network. This was leading up to TMI's steam generator upgrade, so many engineers were on site from other facilities, all of whom brought their laptops, many also brought their own network printers. Finding free IP addresses was not a fun or easy task - minutes of tedious PINGs just hoping to find an IP address with nothing on it multiplied by the number of new users was basically what I was being paid for!
When I came across Manadar's "nping" and its multitasking approach, I knew it was the answer to my dilemma. Of course the app grew over time as needs changed, but the core of the app is still Manadar's approach to multiple simultaneous PINGs. The speed of this app is comparable to Angry IP Scanner and others.
This is a very useful tool when performing any sort of network diagnostics as well as when doing service work in an unfamiliar office, as it will identify the router without you needing to use ipconfig to find it, you can ping specific locations inside or outside the network, save the scan results to a CSV file, resolve the public IP, and open the addresses using a web browser, Windows Explorer, or a Remote Desktop session. All common network troubleshooting functions in one place.
There are situations when you know something is going off from or to your computer and you have no idea what that is or who's doing that. On the other hand, sometimes you are just curious to know (I know I am) what's cooking.
The script is analyzing every connection that your machine has. Either TCP or UDP. It'll give you port numbers, IP addresses, names of the processes issuing connections, their PIDs, locations on HD, user names, connection statuses, and hints on protocols for used ports (so that you know roughly what that connection is or could be). Also you will be given the ability to disable desired connections.
Misc/Others/Not yet grouped
- ......some description to do.....
This tool is useful for techs and consultants in the field who are trying to be thorough yet quick during consultations at businesses needing upgrade options or new workstations and servers. All important physical information about the computer is gathered very quickly to reduce intrusiveness while performing a site audit.
The tool can be used as-is or a site-specific version can be compiled from the app itself, reducing time spent running the tool on each workstation and ensuring that the data is all appended to a single file for later review. I would usually run it from a flash drive but network shares are also a great option when available.
