sory my bad english

[yordan]

Is it really necessary to use a .bat file?
More precisely, isn't this a homework you have to do at school?
Isn't it simpler to let the php program do the job and insert the result inside the database?

This topic is not a tutorial. So, you are right, you should not have posted it in the tutorial section.

i thinked about it bet how to make this php script ?

in .bat file it should looke like this

wget http://mywebsite.som...e...me%&ip=%ip%
something like this i think but now i will need that pc.php script :/

sory my bad english

[yordan]

Sorry, but, this is quite not clear.
the wget sentence is easy to put in a .bat file.
What we cannot understand is what you want to be done. Why do you need a mysql database?
And what is the operation that has to be performed. Do you want to save on your server the contents of the whole PC of each guy accessing your website?
Why do you need to store the IP address, password and start a wget remote backup?
You know, we cannot fully help you if we do not fully understand what you are wanting to be performed.

OK, now we see what you want to do, this can be done very easily.
You can do this very easily in a bat file.
This bat could be something like this, and could be easily sent at the end of system boot.

ipconfig >myip.txt
scp myip.txt remoteuser@remoteserver:myip.txt
echo ip sent to remote server

Of course, you will have to install scp for windows on your customer system (a free version), and setup scp signatures for unattended send, but this is a standard system administration task.

btw i forgot to say that the server on what i want to send info is based on gentoo system

for a while i got something like this :

@echo off
echo [*] Collecting Relevant system information
echo Host Name : %computername% > %computername%.txt
systeminfo | find "OS" >> %computername%.txt
systeminfo | find "Domain" >> %computername%.txt
ipconfig | find "IP" >> %computername%.txt
echo. >> %computername%.txt

i made it just for tests and maby what info send to my server

This is perfect, and should work with your gentoo system.
Just have a look at the resulting file to check that all your infos are there, manually check the scp syntax in order to validate your hostname and username settings, and then add the scp line inside your script.

heh tnx but i have wondered about one thing if the pc got password protected and its got sleep maby is some way to get that password at pc start when user write it or maby its saving in some file

[yordan]

I am not talking about the PC's admin password.
I am talking about a password on your gentoo system for the customer filesystem transfer.
Let's say I create a user named "spawned" on your gentoo system.
Then, the PC makes a scp myfile.txt spawned@yourser:myfile.txt
The only password which has to be sent is the spawned's password on the gentoo system. And this gentoo user spawned is a user which is only allowed to store the text files received from your customer's PC.
And of course this text file should have nothing secret, so that if some spy is listening to your customer's phone line he can catch nothing precious.

i need clients pc pass not my server root password ;D

[yordan]

You don't need the client PC admin password, you only need his IP.
At least you don't need the PC to send his password through the network, you need the customer to tell you his password through a secured way (while having a coffee together for instance), you only need the current IP to be sent at boot time.
And on the gentoo system I was not talking about the root password, I was talking about a dedicated user's password, this user owning the transferred files. Such a user cannot touch the system files, he can only touch the transferred files.
