1. Running
[cscript] wmiadmin.js
(without parameters) collects info about local computer and opens the resulting xml file in a browser.
2. Running
[cscript] wmiadmin.js xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
collects info about computer who's IP address is 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' and opens the resulting xml file in a browser.
3. Given the 'silent' key, script runs in a 'silent mode':
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /silent xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
collects info about computer who's IP address is 'xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx' and doesn't show the resulting xml file;
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /silent
collects info about local computer and doesn't show the resulting xml file.
4. You can specify as much IP adresses as you wish:
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /silent xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy zzz.zzz.zzz.zzz
Note: for all of the above methods, target computer's OS must contain a user account
with username/password that match user's credentials that local system provides.
5. Given the 'username' and 'password' keys, script uses given credentials instead of
those provided by the system:
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /username:alice /password:anywordyoulike xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
6. Given the 'domain' key, you can query a computer in a different domain; NTLM authentication is used.
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /domain:acme /username:alice /password:anywordyoulike xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
7. Given the 'auth' key, you can control the way you authenticate on the target domain.
If this key is equal to "kerberos", Kerberos authentication is used; otherwise, NTLM
authentication is used.
[cscript] wmiadmin.js /domain:acme /username:alice /password:anywordyoulike /auth:kerberos xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
8. Provided 'wmi_administrator.htm' page is a prototype of an WMI administration tool.
You can specify target computer's IP address, username, password and domain name
in the appropriate fields; hit "Start WMI query" to retrieve the WMI info.
Note: before running the GUI tool, please check your browser security settings to be sure
that it allows creation and execution of ActiveX components.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements: - WMI installed on every computer you query;
- WSH installed on computer on which the script is run;
- 'wmiadmin.xsl' stylesheet must reside in the directory
where the 'wmiadmin.js' script is located.
