Logon script that writes Displayname, computer model and serial number to description on computer object

Now you don’t have to look after this information anywhere else than your AD, can be very handy in many situations.
There are of course solutions that do this for you but I like have all information in one place. 🙂


To implement this you have to put the script below as a logon script for all users and delegate control so that Domain Users or any user group of your choice have write permissions to the description attribute of computer objects.

This is easiest done with the delegate control wizard that you find by right clicking to any OU.

Write-Description.vbs

On Error Resume Next

Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\.\root\cimv2")
Set colcomputersystem = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_computersystem")
Set colBIOS = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_BIOS")
For each objcomputersystem in colcomputersystem
Getcomputersystem = objcomputersystem.Model
GetComputerManufacturer = objcomputersystem.Manufacturer
Next
For each objBIOS in colBIOS
GetSerialNumber = objBIOS.SerialNumber
Next
Set objSysInfo = CreateObject("ADSystemInfo")
Set objUser = GetObject("LDAP://" & objSysInfo.UserName)
Set objComputer = GetObject("LDAP://" & objSysInfo.ComputerName)

if LCase(GetComputerManufacturer)="lenovo" then
Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_ComputerSystemProduct")
For Each objItem in colItems
strModel = "Lenovo " & objItem.Version
Exit For
Next
Getcomputersystem = strModel & " (" & Getcomputersystem & ")"
end if

strMessage = objUser.CN & " / " & Getcomputersystem & " / " & GetSerialNumber
objComputer.Description = strMessage
objComputer.SetInfo
