How to call a VB script
Hi!
I am trying to call a VB script using our K1000. The VB script was written by Microsoft to be used for the total removal of Office 2003.
This is an online kscript, set to use domain admin privileges.
Everything thinks it is happy, but the script never runs. Any help would certainly be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Is the 'ul\administrator' account a member of the 'Administrators' group on 'nb-adminvm-mm'?

First things first...take the KBox out of the picture.
Run the script on a target machine (you're obviously using VMs for testing, right?) If that works, then run the script against the box remotely using PSExec, set to run as System (the default). I'm not at all sure why you'd want to run a script to remove Office with Domain Admin privileges but your final test will be a re-run with those credentials. These last two executions will be emulating how the KBox operates but, being run from a command line, you'll be able to see what's happening.

So C:\Windows\System32>psexec -u cl\administrator \\nb-adminvm-mm cscript.exe /nologo c:\OffScrub03.vbs remotely launches the script when i supply the password.
Yes I am testing on a VM.
It threw an access denied message with the system account. - argodzilla 8 years ago
Take a look under configuration polices. There is a wizard called Event log reporter. Run that wizard and save it. Then look at how it created the steps in the on Success area. That is how the KBOX can launch your vbs file. - nshah 8 years ago
