Smith [mailto:[email protected]] Subject: RE: PowerShell noob help Start-Process gives you complete control over executing a separate task. If you don't need complete control, but just the text output, you don't need to do anything. $result = CTXCliOS.exe ^ | find "ClientOS" You can make it more PowerShell, if you want, but there isn't much value in doing so. (If you want to start talking about into making it an "Enterprise Class" script, then that changes things dramatically. Ask Web about the things I've shown him the last year.) :) From: James Rankin [mailto:[email protected]] Subject: PowerShell noob help I've got a batch script I've been using for a while to identify the flavour of client connecting to a XenApp or XenDesktop session. It uses an executable called CTXCliOS.exe Basically this is the batch for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %%a in ('CTXCliOS.exe ^| find "ClientOS"') do set ClientOS=%%a& call :SET goto :eof :SET reg add HKCU\Software\Custom /v ClientOS /t REG_SZ /d %ClientOS% /f goto :eof I'm sure you get the picture. What I'm wondering is what format do I use to convert this to PowerShell (which will avoid having to invoke a separate command script file)? What's the command to call an outside executable (I can't seem to dig it up, but I am on a network where just about every helpful site is blocked by the web filter, so don't be too hard on me, please!) ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to [email protected] with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
