If this parameter is an empty string (""), output is redirected to the screen.
But it wasn't clear for me, that this is an equivalent to "closing the file-datastream"
So far... I got my script working, but during the tests of my script I realized something else I don't understand.
I'll give a little overview to my script, that you are able to relate on my "little problem".
- I used kix2exe to "pack" all the necessary files. - The logonscript.exe is placed on the logon share of our domain-controller
As I wrote above, sometimes it was necessary to create a temporary file, which gets placed in the "main logfile" later in the script, using the display() function.
I tried to place this tempfile in the %temp% directory of the current user like that:
Code:
$out=redirectoutput("%temp%\tempfile.txt")
But the tempfile didn't appear, except I ran the script from my local hard disk drive.
At the moment, I redirect the tempfile to a share on our server. This works fine.
