Vbscript - Remove Old Printers - Add New Printers
Sep 23, 2009Trying to write a Vbscript. Actually, I'm trying to modify an existing script that I found on the internet. I basically need the script to run on workstations, delete printers from our old print server (master), and install the corresponding printer from our new print server (dc01). I should also mention that the printer names have changes slightly. So far, the script does a great job of deleting printers from Master, but none of the corresponding dc01 printers are installed.
Here's the code:

Access A Networked Drive Via Web?
Feb 4, 2010We have around 2000 staff. Each has a shared drive to store some of their files. This shared drive points to a central location on our network.[code]...
Each user will have a folder within the root "ournetwork" labeled with their username. I do not have to worry about the directory creation as that's already done for me. These users are all tied into our AD for authentication. Folder name == AD username.
We would like the ability to allow our users to access their mapped "F" drive from outside our network through a web page. I understand that the programming involved (assuming it comes to that) will not rely on their mapped drive but rather the UNC path as posted above.
I am open to suggestions on how to get this accomplished. ASP.NET? Is there just an IIS solution like WebDAV? (although client-side WebDAV on win 7 seems to be broken, so that may be off the table).
Client Application To Be Networked

View 5 RepliesIncorporating Networked DVR Imagery Into Forms Application
Feb 18, 2012I'm working on a windows forms application and would like to incorporate a feature that would allow me to pull the video stream from a networked DVR source. I have an existing desktop program that I may be able to use to snoop out some of the protocols used, but I have absolutely no idea where to look for a library or api to actually display the video.
Has anyone successfully done this? (Connected to a remote DVR, played realtime video in their own application)
Reading/Writing Files On Networked Comps?
Nov 12, 2009how I should go about getting the names of the computers on a network. And if the comp had file sharing on, get the "tree" of dirs on the computer. Would I need to authenticate myself in order to read/write actual files to it?
how to even get started, so I don't have any code - the best thing I can think about doing is getting the tree of "\\network" or something. (forgot what it was called)
find some code (or give some search keywords or names of APIs) that would allow me to see and write/create files on a networked comp.
VS 2008 - Networked (or Connected) Multiple Programs
Jul 27, 2009I'm planning to make multiple projects, which could connect (or comminicate) together. It's like a designing Network Program. There'll be a main program and some sub programs. These sub programs will send the informations about other computers which is on my network to the main program. If you ask "Why do you need to get infos about other computers?" ,then let me explain. I'm using limited internet connection and I'm not the only one who's using this wireless network. If I get over the limit, I'm paying some limit-upper fee. So, I've to control others internet usage to not to get over the limit. I've just made a small download counter program for my pc, but as I said, I want to convert it to a bigger project, with network solution. Could anyone refer me any resource, or show me any starting point?

I need to grab a list of all networked computers, and I definitely include systems on the wireless

Print To Text Only Printers From Program?
May 15, 2012I have what is basically a text only printer (a Zebra 105SL) connected to my network at a static IP address. I have downloaded Zebra's Text only driver for it and set up a print queue named "Zebra North Text". I can print to that queue from Notepad just fine.
However, I am trying to print from a VB 2005 (soon to be upgraded to VB 2010 or VB 11) application. All of the standard VB sample printing code assumes I need to render the text in Fonts, etc, which just confuses the Text Driver.[code]...

VS 2008 Small App To List And Add Printers?
Oct 9, 2009Am looking at making a small application that will list printers on two file servers at two separate sites, from this app they can add the printer/s to there local computer.
I have found a small application on the web but there are a few improvements it could do with.
They are; Show all local printers without having to click on a check box. Show sites printers without having to click on a check box. Show comments about the printer�s location other then just the site.
If it is possible I would like to update this one, but if there are any other examples where I could download something similar, or even some help with how to begin to create a new application.
Here are some screen shots, of the application form and the xml which holds the folder structure for the sites.
