Hi!

Could you make that the audit.vbs output files are generated into %TEMP% (as in nmap.vbs)?

Would it not make sense to put them in a folder under the current folder, rather than the TEMP folder, after all if you are generating these files, then presumably you are doing off-line audits.

In that case perhaps it would be better to have the location coded in the audit.config

What do you see as the error?

Great, what did you change..... was this mod to create the email, or the off-line audits?

I think its a off-line audit: audit_location = "l"

Applied on SVN 943
Inserted this line:
[code]Line35: Set oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")[/code]
This line may be inserted in another place, but this is what I done.

Changed thees lines:
[code]Line45:
From: this_audit_log = "audit_log.txt"
To: this_audit_log = oShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%TEMP%") & "\audit_log.txt"

Line587:
From: Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile (system_name & ".txt", ForAppending, True)
To: Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile (oShell.ExpandEnvironmentStrings("%TEMP%") & "\" &system_name & ".txt", ForAppending, True)[/code]

Good idea, the audit_log.txt (now called audit_log.csv) is used to create a log of the start and finish of each audit. This is then emailed (if required) to the administrator. I think creating this file in your %TEMP folder is a good idea, if it stops OA from throwing an error.

I may well modify it this way, unless I can think of a reason for keeping the file elsewhere (on the OA server for example).
