Hello,

I've been struggling to get the rqc component to correctly notify the rqs
app a user has passed our quarantine control application. A sample call
would look like this:

rqc.exe NULL "VPN Access to domain" 7250 DOMAIN USERNAME Example1a

where DOMAIN is really our domain and USERNAME is my testing username. I
think I'm really close but there are two parts that are bugging me and I'm
not sure how either relate to each other or which (possibly both?) are
causing the script to fail.

The first uncertainty is regarding the first parameter that gets set to NULL
by the CM when it calls our system check application. The documentation
calls this parameter the %DialRasEntry% and the rqc exe describes it as:

ConnName: the name of the RAS connection on this host

in the format:

rqc <ConnName> <TunnelConnName> <Port> <Domain> <Username> <String>

What exactly is this and why is CM setting it to NULL? Any ideas?

The other part I'm not sure of is the version string at the end. In all the
examples it suggests putting the version of your script. I'm not sure if
this means the CM script, my checking script, etc... The documentation the
rqc.exe file gives doesn't help any:

String: the string to send

GREAT :-) Does this string actually "check" against anything? Or is it
basically any string whatsoever would work?

Any help will be much appreciated. I've struggled with this for a long time
now. I thought writing the VB app to do the quarantine check would be
hard.. This has been a huge road block.
