Oscar, why did you remove the country settings? Arn't those needed for analog MODEM operations?

[0scar]

Because anyway the countries list exist in the telephone properties rules dialog. I had written the countries,reg when the dialog was not working.

[MedEvil]

Thanks for the info.

The beautified last version of the PPPoE plugin:
http://www.mediafire...j449dn8vbk3nzju

Only one coded better script, without additional cmd and reg files.

[MedEvil]

Looks great!

But found a sort of bug.

Add_Shortcut,"Autostart","","X:\Windows\system32\reg.exe",,,"delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Enum\SW" /f"

should better be:

Add_Shortcut,"Autostart","","X:\Windows\system32\reg.exe",,,"delete "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\SW" /f"

Since the command is executed on a running system.

A few suggestions for the final final script.

Since the script is not just for PPPoE, but for all dialup connections, i would give it a name to reflect that. Same goes for the names of the shortcuts.

Give the script a checkbox, so the user can choose, if he wants HwPnP to autorun at start or not.

Try to replace the link to rasphone.exe with one to to rasphone.pbk, like before, but use the attached one. I think you will like the effect. Makes for smoother operations, imo.

I have the following copy errors.

Can not copy:

modemcsa.inf
msports.inf
CmUCRRm.dll
file "drivers"

Have not yet figured out, the reson.

[MedEvil]

Ok, "Require_File,drivers" is plain nonsense. drivers is a folder not a file.
Did you wanted to require the whole folder? Doubt that is a good idea.

[0scar]

What no makes sense at all is Require_File,infsome.inf

But, according to this example in the manual of winbuilder:
"This always copies swenum.sys from the %Source_Sys%drivers folder to the %target_sys%drivers folder:
Require_File,driversswenum.sys"

This should mean copy from source system32driversswenum.sys to target system32driversswenum.sys which is OK.

But also the help manual says that the syntax is:
Require_File,SourceFile,[SourceFolder],[TargetFolder],
So which is the correct syntax?
Is it this?:
Require_File,some.sys, %source_sys%drivers,%target_sys%drivers
Require_File,some.inf, %source_win%inf,%target_win%inf

If in question, go with the code example in Winbuilder.

//Require_File,[Folder\]filename,[Source (if different to %Source_Sys%)],[Target(If different to %Target_Sys%)],[OverWrite]|[PRESERVE],[NOWARN],[NewName for #1 on Target],[MUI Source (if different of parameter #2)]

This is the full syntax for the RequireFile command.

The script uploaded again to fix some bugs and "semi-bugs":
http://www.mediafire...xkw7sxy1s7o4bkn

The scripts deserves a checkbox dialog but in the meantime it may be customized editing the script.
To use your own rasphone.pbk enable this:
//FileCopy,"%ScriptDir%\files\*.pbk","%target_sys%"
//Add_Shortcut,Desktop,"", "X:\windows\system32\myrasphone.pbk","My phonebook"
or better:
// Your own host computer user's rasphone.pbk:
//Add_Shortcut,Desktop,"", "C:\Users\oscar\AppData\Local\Temp\ras\rasphone.pbk","My phonebook"

For disabling hwpnp.exe and use something else to install drivers comment this:
Add_Shortcut,"Autostart","",X:\Windows\system32\hwpnp.exe",,,"+all /p /d /log"

[MedEvil]

Thanks for the hints, but i'm already one step ahead of you.
Checkbox for hwpnp autorun exists and hardcoded paths were adapted to dynamic ones.
I also inplememted a way to include a default rasphone.pbk, if no own one is supplied.
The idea to link to the rasphone.pbk of the host is very clever!
Why havn't i thought of that?

Do you know, where Username and password for the connections are stored?


As i see, "RequireFile,drivers" is still present in the script. So i assume, that it is not a mistake, but actually suppose to do something. Could you tell me what?

[MedEvil]

This part is executed, if it is executed, during build time.
Therfore the use of ControlSet001 was correct and didn't needed changing.

// del SW

//RegHiveLoad,Tmp_System,%RegSystem%

//RegDelete,HKLM,Tmp_System\CurrentControlSet\Enum\SW

//RegHiveUnLoad,Tmp_System

Now it's a bug.

[MedEvil]

Oscar, i see a little problem, to use the rasphone.pbk from host.
We would need to know the name of the user account to use.
The way it is implemented right now, only the AllUsers rasphone.pbk can reliably be used on all computers.

btw. The deafult location of rasphone.pbk in Win7PE is Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Network\Connections\Pbk\rasphone.pbk.
AllUsers uses a different path, strangely. But i havn't written that one down.

[MedEvil]

PS: Since i still havn't found a MODEM to use, could someone do me the favor and try, how the script works with

DirCopy,"%InstallSRC%\Windows\Microsoft.Net","%target_win%"

commented out?

Things should still work fine without it. I only remember Bluetooth needing Dot.Net.

If RequireFile, anyfile means Windows\system32\anyfile
then
If RequireFile, drivers\anyfile means Windows\system32\dirvers\anyfile

Yes, that is why it needs its own script and a tool with a dialog asking for or auto searching for where Windows is installed and users names

Yes, Microsoft.Net is not needed.

You've misunderstood me.
I understand what "RequireFile,drivers\anyfile" does.
What i don't understand, is this command "RequireFile,drivers". It is neighter correct from it's syntax nor is it working. So i need some explaination, of what you intended this command to do, to fix it.

Again a corrupted script file?
I dont find "RequireFile,drivers" in my script.

Slowly but steady this is getting ridiculous. Once a bug like that ok, but twice? Especialy since the archive tests ok.

Anyway, here an excerpt from your script, with the mysterious command.

oscar,

you rock! congratulation!
tested with my USB 3G E173EU-1!

thanks!

Still I dont see the mysterious command "RequireFile,drivers"

Found!

*squash* Now the script looks to be bug free.

btw. I have an idea for "rasphone.pbk from Host". And it doesn't even require any interface to work!
Unfortunately i'm stuck at the moment. I need the copy command to rename the file, if a similar named file already exists. cmd copy commands don't do that.




PS: Status of the script test.

- analog MODEM - OK
- ADSL MODEM
- GSM / GPRS / 3G MODEM (over cable) - OK
- GSM / GPRS / 3G Modem (over irda)
- GSM / GPRS / 3G Modem (over bluetooth)

Today version of pppoe script:

Added checkbox for HWPnP and textbox for dialer country number and area code.
