Hello I am new in using Rainmeter.
For display some Network-Info I use Rainmeter.
Most Informatin I found in the SysInfo Plugin.
But I also need "Logonserver" and " LastLogon"
"LogonServer" I find in the Winsows Variables %logonserver%,
but I don´t know how to show in Rainmeter.
I test with RunCommand Plugin, but I don´t get it to work.
Please Help !!!
Thanks

Re: Display Network-Infos
you can just use "%LOGONSERVER%" in the "Text"-property of a String-meter (or everywhere else where you would use normal variables):
you can read the documentation: https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual/variables/#EnvironmentVariables
Code: Select all
[Meter_Test]
Meter=STRING
Text="%LOGONSERVER%"

Re: Display Network-Infos
If by "LastLogon" you mean the date and time your user account logged into Windows, that is actually pretty tricky to get.
There is a command line option that you might be able to use:
net user AccountName | findstr /B /C:"Last logon"
Replacing "AccountName" with your account... uhm... name.
That will return something like:
So you can use the RunCommand plugin and a RegExpSubstitute / Substitute to get the date and time.
HOWEVER...
The issue with this command is that that logon date and time is only set if you actually, literally "log on" to Windows when it restarts. If you have your account set, and many folks do, to skip logging on with a password and just boot straight into Windows, this value will not reflect that. Take a look at that screenshot above. It says I haven't logged on since April.
THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE...
if you use the command:
quser AccountName
it will return something like:
HOWEVER...
The issue with this command is that it is only available in the "Professional" versions of Windows 7,8,&10. It won't work on any "Home" versions of the OS.
Other than these two alternatives, I don't know of any way to get this information that Rainmeter can get at, so if you really want to know when a user account "logged on" to Windows, you are going to have to determine which of these will work for you.
If you are running Window "Home" and have your account set to boot to Windows without requiring a password to be entered, you are likely out of luck.

Re: Display Network-Infos
There is another alternative that might work.
If you go to this site:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/psloggedon
And download the .zip file near the bottom of the page, you will be able to get the Microsoft Sysinternals command line tool called PSLoggedOn.exe.
That can be called with:
psloggedon | findstr /C:"AccountName"
If you use that utility with the RunCommand plugin, you can get a result like:
That will also display accurate logon time information, and doesn't require Windows "Pro".

Here is an example .rmskin that demonstrates how you might use the PsLoggedon.exe utility.

Re: Display Network-Infos
Hi. Thanks for the Help.
But my first problem.
[Meter_Test]
Meter=STRING
Text="%LOGONSERVER%"
will result with "%LOGONSERVER%"
and not with the servername.
I forget something?

Re: Display Network-Infos
Can you please post the code of the skin that is not working? It would be easier to investigate what is going wrong.Straubi wrote:Hi. Thanks for the Help.

could you do us a favour? When posting code please mark the code and press the "Code"-Button above the posting-window. With that your skin-code will be embedded in a special tag that makes the code easier to read and copied. Thank you!
