Hi All again
I have been looking at WMI but can not find any code for Delphi 5, its all
VBScript or C++ and I don't know either,
I just need some code to see if a certain user is still connected to a
machine on the network that they were on before
Sort of code I am looking for is
If ISUserStillOn('DomainName',MachineName','UserName') then
Showmessage('yes there are')
Else
Showmessage('no there are not');
Can anyone help me with some code please
Thanks in advance
Steve

WMI is short for Windows Management Instrumentation, you should be able to
find lots of info on it on MSDN, particularly under the TechNet Scripting
section since it's used a lot with VBScript. WMI can also be used directly
with Delphi since it's an ActiveX technology.
www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter
Also, take a look at the SysInternals tools, now also part of Microsoft.
They have a series of command line programs called PsTools that includes
lots of management of servers on a network. www.sysinternals.com
