Vista - I need your help.

Hi,

I need your help.
I need to create a script that I monitor the ping servers, and I think a log
file that includes a day (day , time UP or DOWN) and when I leave this DOWN
popup or send me an email.
Is it possible?

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Would you monitor the ping servers, or would the script do that?
Yes, it is possible that you need our help,
and it is possible that you need to create a script.

But you can think a log file and leave that down popup,
I can not imagine.
It is no inconvenience.

to precisely what it is that you want this script to accomplish. Giving a
useful answer to your post as written would be as difficult for us as it
would be for you to answer this question for me: "what is the best way for
me to get downtown from here".

To help you out, consider the following questions:

- you want to monitor servers, but it is not clear what is to be monitored.
Do you just want to know if the are running; is there a specific service
that needs to be running; are you concerned with available disk space
running low; etc.?

- do you want to run the script manually on a computer you are logged into
(where the popup might make sense), or do you want to monitor continually
from an available server (where email notification might make sense)?

- do you want the script to record when the computer starts up and when it
shuts down, or do you want it to generate records on a given interval giving
the time and up/down status?

- when you want the log file to "include a day", do you want the weekday
name to appear in the log file records, or in hte log file name?

Ok, I read your questions and I explained.

I need a script to do:

1 -. Ping monitor multiple servers.
2 .- To be recorded in a log with the data:
172.16.3.1: UP, time = 1ms, TTL = 254, 09/01/2009, 14:00:00
OR
172.16.3.1: DOWN

3.- If is DOWN that you send email to intervene and if possible, a popup to
jump, too.

4 .- The log file that has a name: IP_% date%. Log

Could it be?

Thanks.

The attached files might be of some help. Mail.zip contains mail.vbs which
is a function that uses an object provided by Microsoft Outlook to send an
email message. This can be modified to use another sender (jmail for
example) if you do not have MS Outlook.

IP.zip contains ip.vbs which I wrote (uses free kixForms from
http://www.kixforms.org/assets/index.htm) to monitor my internet connection
(my provider had line problems and I wrote this to track errors).

I don't know your level of expertise so I don't know how much detail to
provide. Please contact me directly at rjdegraff@xxxxxx if you need more
detail or help.
