Command-Line Question

kayen7

Guys, I am having trouble finding the right code to display the list of network drivers connected to a specific machine hostname, using Windows Command-Line. I need to write a script for this function.

Anybody have any idea? I have a couple of different command line books and I can't find it.

Thanks for any help you can give.

well..

ipconfig /all

will display most of your network information

I don't need the network information. I need to have it list the network mapped drives, the paths to those drives, and the letters they are mapped with. Thanks though

What about the net use command? As in

c:\net use
NET USE
[devicename | *] [\\computername\sharename[\volume] [password | *]]
[/USER:[domainname\]username]
[/USER:[dotted domain name\]username]
[/USER:[username@dotted domain name]
[/SMARTCARD]
[/SAVECRED]
[/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}

NET USE {devicename | *} [password | *] /HOME

NET USE [/PERSISTENT:{YES | NO}]

Maybe you can tie that in with the host name you are trying to get info from.

Try "net use" without the quotes.

"net use" not working?

I was looking at net use a bit before. Having a bit of trouble working it into a script that will run off of a list. Thanks for the suggestions.

What are you writing the script in? VBS would be the most appropriate IMO and you are able to grab basically any information that a command will give you, via system API calls.

Just trying to write something that will have a simple output. Wanted to find a quick way to write it in cmd line.

Download and "install" PsExec. PsExec allows you to run command line commands on remote machines. Store whatever script you are using to dump the drivers associated with each machine on your network and create a .vbs file that runs through a list of hostnames and uses PsExec to execute the driver script and store the results.

This is sounding more and more like somebody looking for info on how to fuck over the network he's on and not someone looking for useful information ...

Are you a domain admin? Add a couple lines to your startup script. Use net use command to get the info, and arrange for it to output to a text file. Here's an example of how I log users logging in and out of computers on my domain:

echo %USERNAME%,%COMPUTERNAME%,%DATE%,%TIME%,LOGON >> \\server\Logs\InOutLog.txt

Thanks for all of the information guys. I am not trying to mess up anything. It is simply for statistical purposes. I may be getting close to the answer. Another guy I work with is checking it out with me. If we get it to work the way we want, I will show you how.

I used to work for a managed hosting company and while many tools can be used maliciously, the value of something like this cannot be measured. I currently use Dameware NT Utils for all my remote control and remote information needs.
