I have windows server 2003 and I would like to start scripting I would
like to know what I need to be installed on the server to do so and What
kind of tools I need

I have never wrote a script before so I dedicate this machine to just
learn how to do it.

Can any one guid me please

Hi,

The WSH documentation linked previously is good. The best reference is
"Microsoft Windows 2000 Scripting Guide - Automating System
Administration". It covers VBScript, WSH, ADSI, ADO, and WMI. The text is
available online at:

http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/2000/server/scriptguide/en-us/sagsas_overview.mspx

And you can visit the Technet script center for sample scripts:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/scriptcenter/default.mspx

Finally, nothing needs to be installed. You can run most scripts on any
computer with Windows 2000 or above. On Win9x and NT clients you need to
install DSClient (and WMI if you use that technology). You can use notepad
or even DOS Edit to write and modify scripts.
