Re: Unattended network related operations on windows server 2003

I found out how to accomlish task #2 (disabling LMHOSTS lookup) by the
next
VBScript:

"On Error Resume Next

Const USE_WINS = False
Const USE_LMHOST_FILE = False

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer &
"\root\cimv2")

Set objNetworkSettings =
objWMIService.Get("Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration")
errResult = objNetworkSettings.EnableWINS(USE_WINS, USE_LMHOST_FILE)

Wscript.Echo errResult"

I still don't know if it's possible to remove network protocol with
WMI...

There are no methods in WMI to accomplish this.

Hi all,

I'd like to perform the next network related tasks on live Windows
machine using a script (VBScript or any other language):
1.Install and uninstall network client (e.g. "Client for Microsoft
networks") and network service (e.g. "File and printer sharing").
2.Enable or disable network protocol related stuff (Such as disabling
"LMHosts lookup").


After lot of searching, I found out that the utility "snetcfg.exe"
may help to perform task #1,
and other registry manipulations may help for accomplishing task #2.


If someone knows a way to perform the two tasks without external
utilities and special registry manipulations, please let me known about

it.


Thanks,
Ran.
