Running an action as INTERACTIVE SYSTEM in BigFix

I need to run a VB Script on Win7 devices. The VBS Requires interaction with whatever user is logged in.

Is there a way to specify the UserName as a value on the local workstation so it can be called to specify the user name or Session ID in in the VBS?

Other ideas are welcome as well.

Thank you,

Matt Johnson

Maybe you can create action script with some relevance language inside.

Example:

Relavance - exist logged on user and exist file “net.exe” of system folder

Action - dos net user {name of logged on user} 12345

This will change the local windows password of any logged on user to 12345 when there are users logged on to windows.

Thanks for the information. That would put the variable in the action, but it doesn’t allow it to be interactive.

I believed I missed one key aspect. I need to run the VBS with local admin rights (SYSTEM) and still allow interactivity with the user.

Thanks for any help
