I am using the script to change the computer description however it is not working the way I wanted, any help would be appreciated.

Script:

regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

" “srvcomment”="{value of setting “Physical Location” of client as string}" & " - " & “{string value of select (“username from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI}” & " - " & “{string value of select (“Model from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI}”

Expexted Results:

Bldg 2-1 - mydom\doej - Latitude D820

current Results:

Bldg 2-1

You’re mixing relevance into your action script without escaping it properly using curly braces. This should do what you want:

regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

" “srvcomment”="{value of setting “Physical Location” of client as string" & " - " & “string value of select (“username from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI” & " - " & “string value of select (“Model from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI}”

Ooops… I left some extra quotes in there:

regset "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters

" “srvcomment”="{value of setting “Physical Location” of client as string & " - " & string value of select (“username from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI & " - " & string value of select (“Model from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI}"

Hi boostaz1,

I think since you have a “” in your results, the registry import is failing. Try to add “escape of” to the beginning of the relevance to properly escape the backslash so it is compatible with the registry import:

regset “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters” “srvcomment”="{escape of (value of setting “Physical Location” of client as string & " - " & string value of select (“username from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI & " - " & string value of select (“Model from Win32_computersystem”) of WMI)}"
