Re: Need a script to find the systems in AD or not? "Richard Mueller [MVP]" <rlmueller-nospam[ at ]ameritech.nospam.net> 5/9/2007 2:07:38 AM I think net view will show you all computers connected and authenticated to the domain (even if no one is logged on), and thus available. csvde can reveal all computers in the domain, whether online or not. You could write a script to read the computer names from your text file and then attempt to ping each and report on the results. Or, I have an example VBScript program that queries AD for all computer objects, then pings each to see if they are available. If they are available the program connects and retrieves some information. All is logged to an Excel spreadsheet. The program is linked here: http://www.rlmueller.net/Inventory.htm You can use the program as is, or modify for your needs. It could be modified to read computer names from a text file using the FileSystemObject. This should get you started. -- Richard Mueller Microsoft MVP Scripting and ADSI Hilltop Lab - http://www.rlmueller.net -- "RANG" <RANG[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:11BD5D72-4B9F-4DC6-8F88-40D3E67F568B[ at ]microsoft.com...

Re: Need a script to find the systems in AD or not? "Al Dunbar" <AlanDrub[ at ]hotmail.com.nospaam> 5/10/2007 2:42:56 AM I am not sure what the OP means by checking the hostnames "availability in AD". accessible on the network is one thing (and perhaps the most obvious), but it could simply mean that he has a list of names, and wants to find out which correspond to existing computer objects in AD and which do not. /Al "Richard Mueller [MVP]" <rlmueller-nospam[ at ]ameritech.nospam.net> wrote in message news:uYDxT7dkHHA.3264[ at ]TK2MSFTNGP04.phx.gbl...
