    Can anyone help me with this issue that I am having, I went and
    installed SUS on my PDC yesterday and it created 2 users in IIS and
    locked out the other 2 users that were on that particular machine
    (Administrator and me)..when I try to login with either of the admin
    accounts I get " The Local Policy of This System Does Not Permit You to
    Log on Interactively"...I cant login to this machines at all, and again
    its my PDC....from what I see it denied logon locally to all accounts
    except the ones it created, If I knew the passwords for the IIS user
    names it created I could login with that then go to the domain policy
    editor and change that...but I don't know, anyone have any ideas on what
    I can do short of reinstalling the OS?

    Thanks for any help

    Brian

    Subject: NetBIOS Name resolver

    Those of you on dynamically addressed networks may be having a little
    bit of a headache in taking the contents of the vulnerable.log file
    generated by Microsoft's scan tools for MS03-026 and MS03-039. The log
    is very useful, but since it's contents are the IP addresses only, you
    may be spending quite a bit of time at the console running nbtstat -a to
    reverse resolve those addresses to NetBIOS names for your technicians in
    their task of manually patching recalcitrant hosts.

    To meet the need, I've tossed together a small VBScript, to be run by
    cscript.exe, and made it available at
    http://www.mousetrax.com/Downloads.html#NetBIOSNameResolver

    The download is a 3k zip file containing GetNetBIOSName.vbs and
    readme.txt

    Usage is simple and so is the job. So here's a simple tool for the job
    if you need it.

    To save a little of your online time, I've included the contents of
    readme.txt below my signature.

    Thanks for your patience!

    GetNetBIOSName.vbs

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    What's it for?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    GetNetBIOSName.vbs is a tool for taking lists of IP Addresses and
    resolving those addresses to Windows NetBIOS names. It is designed to
    accurately parse the lists of vulnerable machines produced by the scan
    tools offered by Microsoft to help administrators identify network hosts
    in need of a security update patch.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    How do I use it?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    There are two ways to use this pup. On a system that has VBS files
    associated with the Windows Script Host, you can drag and drop your list
    of addresses directly on the script. The script will accept that file as
    an argument and process the IP Addresses, one at a time.

    Or, you can open a command Console, change to the directory containing
    GetNetBIOSName.vbs and pass, as an argument, the path and file name of
    your list.

    For Example:
    GetNetBIOSName.vbs "c:\vulnerable systems\vulnerable.log"

    Will pass the file, c:\vulnerable systems\vulnerable.log, to the script.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Does it take any other arguments, say a single IP Address?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    No, it doesn't. See, all you gotta do for one address is the same thing
    GetNetBIOSName.vbs does for all the addresses in the list: nbtstat -a
    <IP Address>

    Simple, eh?

    Yes, it might be useful to be able to specify a bit mask, say
    192.168.0.0/16. Yep, that would be cool. Might get around to writing
    that bit of logic one day.

    For the meantime, this will have to do.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Is there a specific format for the IP list to have?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Oh, absolutely! The list of addresses must be arranged with one IP
    Address per line, like this:

    192.168.0.1
    192.168.0.3
    192.168.0.243

    Any other arrangement will simply cause some sort of odd failure. No, it
    won't be a damaging result. The result will merely be useless beyond
    anything but entertainment.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Anything else I should know?
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    Only these points:
    - NetBIOSNames.log will be created in the same folder in which the
    script resides.

    - NetBIOSNames.log contains output that is truly Comma Separated Value
    format. In other words, the output in the file will look something like
    this:

    "192.168.0.152","KIDS01","MAC Address = 00-20-ED-5B-98-8E"
    "192.168.0.159","POPPAS01","MAC Address = 00-E0-29-27-17-57"

    - Instead of consuming your machine and network, the script will only
    resolve one of the machines in the list at a time.

    - Please, if you pass the script along, pass this readme file with it.
    Not that I'm picky, but I'd prefer to get credit where it's due.

    - If, instead of credit, you think I'm due some criticism, hold that
    thought...to yourself! It's a tool, I wrote it, and I'm not responsible
    for what you do with it. Got yourself fired for scanning your network
    without talking to your network admin? Well, that's YOUR fault, right?
    The script is well mannered, but this is software and getting the
    results does mean you make some racket on your network.
