I am trying to build a basic TCL skeleton script that reads a remote SNMP OID and displays the value on the screen.

I am trying to build a basic TCL skeleton script that reads a remote SNMP OID and displays the value on the screen.
I don't want it to be an EEM Event, I just want to run it from the (tcl)# prompt.
So I guess I'm asking if you can use cli_exec and other commands in the "namespace import ::cisco::eem::*" in a normal non-EEM script - can I do that?
This is the error I get:
OTN.159(tcl)#source flash:TCL_SNMP_Remote_Read.tcl
invalid command name "::cisco::eem::event_register_none"             ^
% Invalid input detected at '^' marker.
What am I missing?
================= TCL_SNMP_Remote_Read.tcl ==============================
::cisco::eem::event_register_none
namespace import ::cisco::eem::*
namespace import ::cisco::lib::*
if [catch {cli_open} RESULT]
    { error $RESULT $errorInfo }
    else { array set cli1 $RESULT }
if [catch {cli_exec $cli1(fd) "snmp get v2c 192.168.1.100 public timeout 1 oid 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0" } RESULT]
       { error $RESULT $errorInfo }
       else { set SnmpSysDesc $RESULT }
if [catch {cli_close $cli1(fd) $cli1(tty_id)} RESULT] {
            error $RESULT $errorInfo
puts $SnmpSysDesc
=========================================================================
In the sho-run config I have:
event manager directory user policy "flash:/"
event manager session cli username "cisco"
Any help to get me started would be greatly appreciated!
Tim

If you don't want an EEM policy, then don't use any of the EEM constructs. Instead, all you need is this:
set output [exec "snmp get v2c 192.168.1.100 public timeout 1 oid 1.3.6.1.2.1.1.1.0"]puts $output

Acrobat form field that allows Reader user to browse and insert a picture into a predefined area

Is there a way to do insert a form field into an AcroForm that allow Reader users to browse and insert a picture into that form field?
I know that LiveCycle can do this, but I need to do this using an AcroForm. Or maybe there's a third-party plug-in that can be used in an AcroForm to do this?

Jay,
The new version of Reader, which was announced today (see AcrobatUsers.com), will now allow you to use the field.buttonImportIcon method: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.737.html
For a bit more information, see: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/743823
Here's the minimum code that can be used in the Mouse Up event of a button that's configured with a layout that's something other than "Label only":
// Mouse Up script for a button
event.target.buttonImportIcon();
Since this isn't backwards compatible with Reader, you'll probably want to add additional code to test what version is being used and alert the user if it's pre-11. You should also check the return value to see if anything went wrong. The hard part is getting everyone to upgrade, but this and a number of other features should make it worth it.

I have an iPhone 4 that i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access all my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? It is also on the same apple id, but i dont know if that would help with anything.

I have an iPhone 4 thats i was trying to fix and now it will not turn on at all is there anyway that i can access my pictures and contacts from my new phone or pc? Aslo the are both on the same apple id but i dont know if that would help or not.

Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.

My old computer that ran on Mavericks was stolen and my new computer runs on Yosemite. I don't like the new iMovie (10) on the Yosemite version. Is there any way to get the old version (9) back?

If that is wrong then he can clarify his question.

If i buy a phone that is unlocked for any carrier and connect it, will it still be unlocked for other carrier?

If you buy it directly from apple as unlocked yes. I know some places sell "unlocked" phones that lock to the first network you connect them to. Your best bet is to buy directly from apple.

Script that enables mail users and kicks out two csv files

I am working on a script that will mainly be used as a scheduled task to enabled mailuser by calling the update-recipient command.
But before it calls that command it will get for various issues that can cause errors.
Missing PrimarySMTP
Display name having a space at front or back.
The external email address being blank.
I have IF statements setup to check for those and then call a function that will save into an array the issue for that user.
Here is the script

Hi Jeff,
Any updates? If you have any other questions, please feel free to let me know.
A little clarification to the script:
function _ErrObject{
Param($name,
$errStatus
If(!$err){
Write-Host "error detected"
$script:err = $True
$ErrObject = New-Object -TypeName PSObject
$Errobject | Add-Member -Name 'Name' -MemberType Noteproperty -Value $Name
$Errobject | Add-Member -Name 'Comment' -MemberType Noteproperty -Value $errStatus
$script:ErrOutput += $ErrObject
$errOutput = @()
_ErrObject Name, "Missing External Email Address"
$errOutput
_ErrObject Name "Missing External Email Address"
$errOutput

Executing a powershell script for checking duplicate users while creating a AD user throug ADUC console.

Hi,

please provide me the approriate solutions.
Thanks
Prasanthi k

Run the below Powershell Script for users are exist or not in AD. Later you can create the users.
#Find Users exist in AD or Not?
#Biswajit Biswas
$users = get-content c:\users.txt
foreach ($user in $users) {
$User = Get-ADUser -Filter {(samaccountname -eq $user)}
If ($user -eq $Null) {"User does not exist in AD ($user)" }
Else {"User found in AD ($user)"}

Powershell script for removing some users from a particular Site Collection

Hi,
I am looking for a PowerShell script to delete a few users from a particular Site Collection. I am unable to delete them from/_catalogs/Users/simple.aspx page therefore need some other medium to
delete users from the site collection.
My ultimate aim is to have no user profile with "tp_deleted" field's value as 0 in the USERINFO table. Currently there are about 40 odd users with this field's value as 0 and this is affecting my crawling of this content database.

Thanks for the reply Alex & eHaze,
I have a content source of root site which crawls all the site collections under it. Out of the 9 site collections, only 8 are getting crawled and 1 doesn't get crawled at all. The error in the crawl logs is
The SharePoint item being crawled returned an error when requesting data from the web service. ( Error from SharePoint site: Value does not fall within the expected range. )
I tried a lot of things, searched over the net and finally found
this which helped me solve the same issue in my development environment. I deleted these users from userInfo table and ran a full crawl. And the issue was fixed.
Now since I cannot delete the users from userInfo table directly from PROD environment, I used .../_catalogs/Users/simple.aspx list
to delete users from this site collection. While some of the users I could delete, quite a few I could not. Clicking on the profile redirected me to the home page rather than the info page of the profile.
This
is why I have to delete these users from the site collection.
Alex - the link you shared, I guess it is for a web application level.
eHaze - the script you shared throws this error:
Get-SPSite : Cannot find an SPSite object with Id or Url: http://dev-apps/divisions/BT. At C:\PowerShell Scripts\DeleteUserFromSiteCollection1.ps1:4 char:19

hope this info helps.

Script to look up user's SID and then delete entry from registry \ProfileList

I need to be able to run a script VB or PowerShell (PS preferred) to look up a AD user accounts SID, search for that SID in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList and remove that entry.
Is this possible? I have the easy part of the script written, it looks up the SID and stores it but the search of the registry is what I need help with:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
$UserName = Read-Host "What is the User Name?"
$UserNameSID = Get-ADUser -Identity "$UserName" | Format-List *SID*

Hi,
Yes, that's possible. Here's a starter:
$sid = (Get-ADUser -Identity (Read-Host 'Enter the username')).SID.Value
If (Test-Path "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\$sid") {
Write-Output "Found $sid"
Remove-Item "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList\$sid" -Recurse -WhatIf

Domain user account will not authenticate once user logs out and logs back in

Greetings,
I am having difficulty resolving an issue with a Mac user on my domain. the user can log in no problem from the initial start up, however when the user logs out and trys to log back in, the domain account and the password doesn't authenticate. the only way the user can log back in is by shutting down completely.

The guys around here who know anything about that hang out on Mac OS X Server forum. Many of them support mixed Server environments in their day jobs.

HELP:script that iterates through all opened documents and rezise them to match the biggest one.

Hi,
I'm making a batch processing action and I really need a script that iterates through all open documents, finds the one with the biggest image size and then iterates one more time to change the rest of the documents to the same image size dimensions. At the end all documents must share identical image size. I'll really appreciate if someone can put a quick script for doing this. Thank you !

I think should do…
#target photoshop
if (documents.length > 1) {
     var smallest = 1000000; // Set beyond any size you may be expecting this should do?
     for (var a = 0; a < documents.length; a++) {
          smallest = Math.min(smallest,documents[a].width.as('px'));
     for (var b = 0; b < documents.length; b++) {
          if (documents[b].width.as('px') != smallest) {
               app.activeDocument = documents[b];
               var newWidth = new UnitValue(smallest, 'px');
               documents[b].resizeImage(newWidth,undefined,undefined,ResampleMethod.BICUBICSMOOTHER);
}else{
     alert("NOT enough docs to resize?");

I tried to update iTunes yesterday. The update failed. Now when I try to open iTunes it says that the version isn't localized and needs to be run in English. It has never been in another language.

I attempted to update iTunes yesterday. The update failed. iTunes now won't open and displays an error message that the program isn't localized and needs to be run in the English version. I'm in the US and the computer and program has never been used in another language. I tried reinstalling the full download for the new version and that failed as well. I logged out; shut down; restarted; retried the update; etc. Still no luck and the same message. Thoughts?
