      @plegrand said in snapin and batch script:

      @Avaryan it’s for use WsusOffline which is installed on a samba share \samba\wsus
      then i need to mount the wsus share , launch a command (wsus command) dnd then umount share.

      Ok. That should be possible since the local users don’t need to access the mount. Should be pretty easy in PowerShell. I don’t know how to do it other ways, lol.

      $Username = "Domain\User"
      $Password = "Password" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
      $Credential = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $Username, $Password
      # Add share.
      New-PSDrive -Name "MyShare" -PSProvider FileSystem -Root \\ShareName\ -Credential $Credential
      
      # Do something...
      # More somethings...
      
      Remove-PSDrive -Name "MyShare"

            Should be possible.

            $Username = "samba\administrator"
            $Password = "my'password" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
            $Credential = New-Object -TypeName System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -ArgumentList $Username, $Password
            
            New-PSDrive -Name "Samba" -PSProvider FileSystem -Root '\\samba\wsus$' -Credential $Credential
            $UpdateInstaller = Get-ChildItem -Path "Samba:\wsusoffline\client\" | Where-Object -Property Name -EQ "UpdateInstaller.exe"
            Start-Process -FilePath $UpdateInstaller.FullName -Wait
            Remove-PSDrive -Name "Samba"
            

            Depending on how large the UpdateInstaller.exe is and how many devices you are doing at once, it might be better to have this copy it over and run locally.

              @plegrand Does the UpdateInstaller.exe require User input?

                  @plegrand I still doubt if that will work. If UpdateInstaller.exe requires user input, the script won’t run (or will be stuck running forever).

                        @plegrand I’m asking if UpdateInstaller.exe (as you’re running it) expects user input?

                          @Tom-Elliott In fact i will not use “UpdateInstaller.exe” IRl. I will use a command line with arguments like that :

                          "call W:\cmd\DoUpdate.cmd /verify /updatecpp /updatetsc /instdotnet4 /autoreboot"
                          

                          But this command doesnt open a window then for my test i cant see if the command is well launched or not.

                          But for the moment my problem is : how mount a samba share with snapin which is usable by administrator user

                            @plegrand You can’t. Not with snapins in that sense. It will be mounted by the SYSTEM user only as that’s how snapins run.

                                    @plegrand I am pretty sure, no amount of tries (with or without) snapin pack, snapin plain, psexec, powershell, batch, vbscript, or any thing else will get this working for you.

                                    The first step would be to find out if the command is actually needing user input. Snapins cannot operate with the user environment.

                                      @Tom-Elliott said in snapin and batch script:

                                      Essentially, the reason why the “red x” happens is because System user is who mounted the point, and the permissions are not available to the user you’re actually logged in under. If you need a “global” mount of a drive, this would be more readily handled using GPO’s, not fog snapins. While I’m sure it “could” be handled via a snapin, i think such a thing is out of scope for the FOG Client.

                                      This is correct, use Group Policy to do this. Either in a startup script or a login script. That’s how I’ve always accomplished it.
                                      Additionally, you don’t even need to script it because Group Policy has native functionality for mapping & mounting remote volumes.

                                        @Tom-Elliott as i said before the command i will use will not need user input :

                                        I will use a command line with arguments like that :

                                        "call W:\cmd\DoUpdate.cmd /verify /updatecpp /updatetsc /instdotnet4 /autoreboot"
                                        

                                        once share mounted in w:

                                        I would like to update my computer once image deployed, for that i use “WsusOffline”
                                        WsusOffline is located on a samba share, then i have to mount the samba share, in “w:” for example, and then launch this command :

                                        W:\cmd\DoUpdate.cmd /verify /updatecpp /updatetsc /instdotnet4 /autoreboot"
                                        

                                        from the samba share

                                          Based on a couple minutes of research, I don’t think you can run UpdateInstaller.exe silently. So this is likely just not going to work.
