I did a search for this and didn't find anything that addressed this issue, but as I am new, I could have missed it. If so, sorry. I want to make sure the script bombs out after a certain point if the user is logging into a server. Here is how I thought this should be done:
Code:
Dim $UID, $PT
$UID = @UserID
IF @ProductType = "Windows 2000 Server"
OR "Windows 2000 Domain Controller"
OR "Windows Server 2003"
OR "Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller"
OR "Windows Server 2003 R2"
OR "Windows Server 2003 R2 Domain Controller"
$PT = "Server"
ELSE
$PT = @ProductType
ENDIF
;and later
IF $PT = "Server"
? "Bypassing the login script because you are logging in"
? "from a " + @ProductType + "!"
GOTO end ;bypassing the rest of this script
ENDIF
The problem is that it is giving that message even on a Windows XP Pro computer and then bombing to end. I also tried it without the quotation marks around 'server'. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!

This method will bypass EVERY server type.
Code:
Dim $SRVR
$SRVR = ReadValue('HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\ProductOptions','ProductType')
If $SRVR<>'WinNT'
;Use the Exit to bypass functions or Quit to end the entire script.
Exit 10
EndIF

After review, I looked at the INSTR function mentioned. I ended up with this:
Code:
SELECT
CASE INSTR(@ProductType,"Server")
$PT = "Server"
CASE INSTR(@ProductType,"Controller")
$PT = "Server"
CASE 1
$PT = @ProductType
ENDSELECT
I know this will not handle non-PDC/BDC NT 4 Servers, but we do not have any in place, so that wouldn't matter as much. This does seem better, and I am always wanting to learn better ways to do things. I am not a programmer, nor do I try to pretend to be. That is why I ask for help. Most of you guys are much better at this than I will probably ever become.
