I need to create a software installation group policy using VB 2010 (or C# for that matter).
how to build something like the following:I have an application that will reside on Kiosk style PCs that are out there in public settings. While the application is running on the Kiosk I'll need to restrict the access to certain PC features (reboot, command prompt, download files, etc.) so they don't mess with the PC. I need to build a Windows Installer that deploys the application and does all the set up needed to lock down the PC. The installer needs to do all the work; there can't be any manual steps besides running the installer. The installer will install the application, this part is standard. In addition it will create a local user and use Local Group Policy Objects to restrict the user's access to the machine. Then the machine administrator will log in as that local user and run the Kiosk application under this account. The hope is that the account is locked down and people playing with the application won't be able to stop the application or do anything malicious to the PC.I have been looking for a way to create GPOs in C# code. This way I can implement the GPOs as a CustomAction in my installer. So far I am not finding the right API for GPO management so I'm starting to wonder if I'm even on the right track.If you know of a nice solution for how to accomplish the Kiosk lockdown via a Windows Installer or you know something about managing Group Policy in a C# application
View 7 RepliesI want to be able to get and set values of Local Policy Editor using vb scripts (or for that matter any other command line thing). The problem is that for my requirement I cannot rely on the machine in question having anything like powershell. I want to be able to run a script/command and get/set the values of things inside Local Group Policy Editor.
eg. I want to be able to set things like running gpedit.msc and set the value for "\Computer ConfigurationAdministrative TemplatesNetworkOffline FilesDefault Cache Size", and I want to do this without manual intervention.
how I could retrieve the date/time of the last Group Policy update. I have a crude routine that will search the Event Log for Event 1704, but this runs slower than I'd like. I was hoping there might be a way to get this info via Registry, WMI query, etc. that would work faster in my VB2010 program.
View 4 RepliesThe following steps give a Guest shutdown policy.
1- Click run, and type the gpedit.msc, to start "Local Group Policy Editor".
2 -Expand "Computer Configuration" -> "Windows Settings" -> "Security Settings" -> "Local Policies" -> Then click "User Rights Assignment".
3- In the Policy window, Select "Force shutdown from a remote system", double click it, it will pop a properties window.
4- Click "Add user or group button", add a user and name it Guest.
I need to know if it's possible to manipulate and add the user or group programmatically. I'm using Visual Basic 2008.

View 14 RepliesI would like to create or rename a group of sequential textboxes on my VB.NET windows form in the design environment. I currently have 70 textboxes. Right now they are named as TextBox1...TextBox70. I would like to rename all of them to something else like Conveyor1...Conveyor70. I am going to have other groups of textboxes on the screen as well, so I need a quick method to either create them with another sequential name or rename the entire group.

I am currently trying to create a program to list a large group of numbers for me. My final goal is to have every 2, 3, 4, ..., and 9 digit number containing only "1" "2" and "3". I thought I would go about this by using the following VB.NET program and then copying it into a text editor, and using find & replace to eliminate all other numbers.
Public Class Form1
Dim Start As Integer = 333333333
Dim Counter As Integer = 333333333
[Code].....
it fails due to the massive amount of processing that needs to take place. However, adding the intervals requires a great deal of time for each number to be displayed without any crashes.
Is there some way (in VB.NEt or another language) to get the number list I want in a short (an hour or less) amount of time?
first wanna say, awesome forum here wish i'd found it sooner so basically im trying to create a tool for my group (6 people) that tracks tickets they work, basically we work jobs by ticket request and im trying to create a tool/program where they can enter:the ticket number if they completed,pending etc and notes of the job i figured it was gonna be easy, do a simple GUI that saves the info to a excel sheet or a access DB file.
that is basically how it looks. what im trying to figure out and hoping to get some help on is what is the best way to go about this? would a access DB work out better? (since i am hoping to expand it later like add a auto date/time function etc)how do i get it so when i hit the "submit" button it copies the fields and puts them into the DB file?
I have a project/app released which references a dll from the GAC folder. The project is looking for version 1.0 of the referenced dll.
I want to release version 2 of the dll without having to re-release the app and have all users re-install.
I had thought if i deployed a policy with the new dll which redirected calls for the dll to the new version this would be ok. However I think I am missing something. IT seems the redirect is not working as when I test on a users machine, give them the version 2 dll and the policy dll but take away the version 1.0 the app fails. It seem calls to the missing dll are not redirected by the policy dll to version 2.
Policy config which is used to create the policy.1.1.CorpReportsClassLibrary.dll
is as below.

View 3 RepliesHow do I create commands that allow a group of adjustable voltages to be provided outside the computer, via the usb, serial or paralell ports, etc to control devices connected to the computer?
