Prevent a VBS script from running on servers

You can use this

systeminfo | findstr /C:"OS Name:"

Select allOpen in new window

Start here:
https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/df14b0d5-d8d3-4502-8250-dfff7e2f66fe

Then look up additional Members in the Win32_OperatingSystem class:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa394239(v=vs.85).aspx

I think what you want is:

ProductType

    Data type: uint32
    Access type: Read-only

    Additional system information.

    Work Station (1)
    Domain Controller (2)
    Server (3)

Putting it together:

strComputer = "." 
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _ 
 & "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") 
  
Set colOSes = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_OperatingSystem") 
For Each objOS in colOSes 
  Wscript.Echo "Prduct Type: " & objOS.ProductType 
Next 

Select allOpen in new window

I would handle this with a new GPO and move the logon script to this new GPO.
From there I would leverage WMI filtering.
Here are two screenshots that highlight what I am talking about.


 

I would just put a simple exclusion in by using item level targeting, or put a simple WMI filter in place and have the GPO use that WMI filter for where it applies.

You can use server name, or group membership, or OS to makw the exclusion directly in the group policy.

  of course you can put it in your script as well, whichever you prefer.

@ Yo Bee,  I am on mobile, and when I wrote that 4 hours ago, there was no posr by you, it just posted now. phpht.

in any case you saidwhat I came to say, and included screenshots I couldn't while mobile, so I certainly defer to you and would edit my post to note you dorectly if I could but, I'm on mobile.

have good mosh pitting.😃

@Ben

1: Please take the time to read previous replies before posting any of your suggestion. This will avoid any duplicative suggestion.  
2: GPP will not work here since the asker has a Logon Script and not applying a GPP.
3: The asker never mentioned what his script does. He just asked how to exclude it from running is the user logs onto a server.

@yo bee,

  Please see above.

Thanks.❤

I was typing my reply before you posted your second comment.
That makes sense now.  Sorry if I offended you in anyway.

@David Johnson

Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I want :)

>>Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I want :)

And pretty much what was posted 4 hours before?

@netminder all your script does is display the product type. My answer goes one step further and checks if the product type is 1 which is a non-server OS

I understand you added the additional IF statement.

I figured the OP had a certain level of knowledge and only needed to figure out how to determine if the script was running on a Workstation or not.

ProductType was the hard part.  IF statements should be simple.

If you want the points for an IF statement, enjoy.
