Finding drive mappings

$
0
0

Has anyone got a decent, reliable method or script to detect all mapped drives?  I have the crude version below that works but reporting from this data collection isn't the easiest.

 

Since we're movng from Novell to AD, I need to filter out my Novell mappings and only report on the non-Novell mappings.  I currently do this with an array of known Novell servers then searching their existence in the string of the found mappings, then liminating them.  Just looking for a better way.

 

Thanks in advance!

Parallel upgrade - inventory

$

0

Hi,

 

I am running a parallel upgrade 95 sp1 to 96 sp1.

I am pushing the new 96 agent using a scheduled task on the 95 server.

 

I noticed that machines with the new agent are reporting there inventory to both servers.

Inventory has been stripped off some switches that were pointing to the Core server.So I understood that the client was picking the Core server name from the registry. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Intel\LANDesk\LDWM\coreserver

Since the registry of the machine I am looking at has the correct name for the core server does it mean the client is getting the old server name from the certificates??

 

Thank you

Query for different versions of Internet Explorer

I've read the past threads on this, what few there were, but was unable to locate an answer that worked.

 

When I attempt to query for IE versions, Utilizing the Custom Data, or the Product/Name functions, I get a jumbled response.  It brings back pretty much everything in the computer software inventory.

 

I need to be able to differiniate between IE 7 and IE 8 but can not get it to run correctly and bring back what i am asking it for.  I can get it to bring back 8 only. but not 7 and 8 nor, more perfably, everything but 8.

 

After establishing the quert to bring back the above, I would tack on it further statements that will bring it back for a particular subnet as well.  I've managed to do this for other programs, such as Lotus and Adobe, but IE isnt' performing the same... I must assume this is because it's imbedded into the OS correct?

 

Thanks for any help you can provide scripting the correct logic for this function. 

Another duplicate computer question

$

When I reload some of our computers, they are showing up in our inventory twice. The comptues will have the same name and MAC address, but different Device ID#. I have LDMS set up to remove duplicates base on "Both device names and MAC addresses", but am still getting duplicate computes with the same name and MAC address, but with different ID numbers.

 

Does anyone have any ideas?

Get Windows Scheduled Tasks in Inventory

Has anyone come up with a solution for getting the Windows Scheduled Tasks in Inventory?  I am pretty sure it could be done with the combination of ldscnhlp.ini, schtasks.exe, and some script to generate a data file in the format LANDesk understands.  Before I tackle this, I thought it would be good to check if anyone has already done it.

Where is the version of Internet Explorer reported.

We just upgraded ot LDMS version 9.5.  In LDMS 9.0 I could find the version of IE on each machine querying Inventory, Custom Data, Internet Explorer.

Any idea how to query IE versions in 9.5?

Inconsistent Managed Device Inventory Field Data

$

At the moment, I'm running LDMS 9.5 managing two US locations.  All machines in one of the locations are on our domain and there are 250 machines of the other location that are not on our domain (yet).  I've created a query which displays fields for Qualified Login Name, Workgroup membership, LDAP Groups-Machine-DisplayName, Display Name which is redundant, pc Model, and last Hardware Scan Date.  The inconsistent data is for those machines which have scanned and reported back today that have no Workgroup or LDAP Group data (see screenshot). Visually, I am concluding that since the Login name is not a domain login, that the machine is not on the domain but this inconsistency will throw off data in my reports.  Of the total 622 machines reporting in this query 35 have no Workgroup or Name/DisplayName data.  And all but 2 of the 35 have the newest 9.5 Agent.  Any clues as to why/how these machines aren't reporting these fields?

Device not showing discovery status

$

Hoping someone can help me figure this one out.  I have a device, my PC, that I have lost 'connectivity' to from within the console.  The inventory and security scans are processing whenever they're run but when the discovery is done to see if it's connected or not, it flashes the blue "?" mark and then never returns the status. 

 

I've tried removing the agent completely and re-isntalling several times.  I've turned the firewall off to see if something happened there.  Update the NIC drivers.  Made sure the "NT AUTHORITY\Authenticated Users" is in the "Users" group and that the our Scheduler account is in the Administrators group...just in case.  I've deleted the device from Inventory and ran full scans and made sure everything populated.  I can ping the PC from the core and other PCs.

 

Any thoughts?  What am I missing?  Nothing has changed...at least that I'm aware of. 

 

Thanks,

Scott

Username that installed an application

Hi there,

 

Does anybody know how to retrieve or include in the LDMS inventory data base the username of the user that installed manually a given application in a client computer? Maybe using the WMI tool from LDMS console?, in that case in what WMI path could that information be found?

 

Thanks!

simple database schema map?

$
0
0

 

Anyone have a database schema map for the inventory data? I could have sworn I had one years ago but I can't find any info on here anywhere. Not a complete schema diagram like you can make in SQL, I mean just a spreedsheet or something mapping the inventory common display names to the actual field names. Mostly this is used for creating reports via Crystal, ease of viewing data via MSAccess, etc.

 

Basically I neede a cleaned-up spreadsheet version of the datamart.xml I guess. Anyone have something like this or am I going to have to make one from scratch?

Need Help Creating Query to Find Computers Without Updated Program

$

Hi everyone,

 

I'm fresh to operating LANdesk and myself and others in our staff are really racking our brains about how to resolve this. So, being a total n00b, I'll try to explain this as best possible. And please be simple in response! (Anyone have a LANdesk for dummies?)

 

I'm trying to create a query to find computers that do not have a specific version of a program installed. I figured the simple answer is to just use "not exist" and the title/version of the program I'm looking for.But that doesn't seem to work like that. I can't effectively do a search of all previous versions, because the program can run the new version with or without the old version. We need to find what PC's do not have the program installed so we can make sure to get the program pushed out or get to it by foot.

 

Thanks!

How to query proxy setting in HKCU

$
0
0

All,

 

We are testing a new proxy and are trying query HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings for a string value - AutoConfigURL.  We have defined a custom data definition in the manage software list for the correct HKCU key and string.  We have verified that it works on some machines where the inventory was ran with the user logged on.

 

From what I can find on other posts, querying HKCU is next to impossible for a reliable query response.  I have tried some of the sample scripts that copy HKCU keys to HKLM (Printer.vbs) and adapted for our purposes, but it will only work when the logged in user is a local admin.  We have very few people with local admin rights.

 

I have seen a few posts suggesting you might have to use strasuser.exe but no examples or feedback indicating it worked.

 

Has anyone successfully queried HKCU?  If so, can you post a sample script/process?

 

We are running a newly re-built 9.6 sp1 core with over 2000 machines which are almost exclusively Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise.

LDAP Location Blank after upgrading agent to 9.5 SP2

$

Hello,

 

We recently upgraded our LANDesk core servers from 9.0 SP4 to 9.5 SP2.  The client agents themselves are still mainly running 9.0 SP4 at the moment.  When upgrading the client agent to 9.5 SP2 the parameter "LDAP Location" directly off of the Computer tree is blank.  The old 9.0 SP4 agents are still reporting this accurately.  "Computer Location" is accurate in both agents.

 

This wouldn't be much of a big deal but our entire scoping is built off of the "LDAP Location" parameter. 

 

Has anybody seen this or know how to fix it?

Cant see a device in all devices

Hi Guys,

 

I installed new 9.5 core server and now im trying to migrate clients from old 9.0 core server to it.

 

Im redeploying agents from new core server to all devices. So far everything worked like charm.

Now I found a device that I sucessfully deployed agent to but that device do not apear in all devices list.

Im able to connect to it using remote control.

 

I was also able to run manual security and inventory scan from the device. I saw that this device was communicating with right core during this scan but It didnt apear in the list.

(no error on client during scan)

 

I tired to completely remove - reinstall the agent but behaviour of this device is still the same.

 

Core server and the device are on the same network. All firewalls are dissabled.

 

Does anyone have an idea what might be the problem ?

 

Thanks

I'm attempting locate disabled PC's in AD that are in the Landesk inventory. I've enabled  AD in Landesk and have a saved query that reports disabled devices.  Can't figure out a way to bring this information into a Landesk query. Is there a way to do so or another way to determine if I have any disabled devices in my Landesk database. 

9.6SP1 Core - stale devices are not deleting from inventory

I have a few devices that I mark for deletion within LDMS. The way I understand this process is that I only mark it for deletion and then by default around 23:00 these are removed from the inventory. But when I come back the next day, I see the stale devices are still there. 

When do added file types start showing up in software inventory?

LDMS 9.6 SP2; I've added a file type (.KEY) to the list of file types to be scanned, but when I perform a scan on my machine, the file (which I know is there) isn't showing up under Software - Packages. ldappl3.ini shows a correct modify date and when I look in there, the file type is shown, but the actual file that I'm looking for doesn't show up in inventory. Any thoughts?

Is it possible to configure the scanner to scan c:\users\ and all folders in that directory for a certain subset of folders and files? specifically I want to know if there is a file with a certain extension in the roaming folder of each user listed. Thanks.
