Hi,

I don’t get the last logged on user on Win7 machines, is it possible to get this also?

2 other things I would live to have included into the wrapper are the Description field & the Owner from the AD :-)

Is this possible?

/Best Regards and thanks for a superb tool.

I am loving these scripts. With over 150 undocumented servers, these scripts have saved my bacon. I always write documentation when I build a server but for those hundred odd I didn't build, it would have taken a lifetime. And like most techs, I really don't like spending days on documentation. I really think you should keep up the good work and hopefully we can motivate you to do so. Unfortunately for me, I was never really gifted with a logical coding or scripting mind. I can write small scripts sure, but nothing like the awesomeness you've produced here! It would be great to see a little more on the AD version and certainly if it includes Exchange too. Nice one fella! I'd buy you a beer!! ps. I'm getting the same failure as Shannon Justice on the SYDI-Exchange, but hey, I can wait for a new release :) You are AWESOME!!!

It is failing upon the request for the InformationStore LDAP entry. Is there some way that I can fix this? Thanks for a wonderful script!

THis will simplify my documentation. Q: I can't seem to get credentials to work since not all servers are in the domain. EX: cscript sydi-server.vbs -h -u [user] -p [pass] does not work. Q: Is it possible to get NIC Teaming info on the report as well? Thank you, First off, GREAT Product… THis will simplify my documentation.

Just being able to import the data into a database and write customized reports from there would be super useful. Thanks for an awesome product!
