This easily shows which IT staff members are available on your Intranet or website. Use the PHP code below and tweak the AIM name and your contact information for your needs.
You need access to a web server with PHP installed and an AIM account on your PC or smartphone. When you set your AIM status to available or invisible your users can see this dynamically on your site. If you install AIM on your smart phone you can set your status anywhere you go. Use this to have a peaceful day off or a quiet lunch and direct support calls to the person working. It also helps eliminate end user stress because they can now quickly see who is available.

Code:

See who is available in IT: (Be sure to refreash this page for current infomation!)

<?PHP
$screenNamerp = “billsmith”; // Add your screename to the $screenName variable
// Connect to AOL server
$url = @fsockopen(“big.oscar.aol.com”, 80, &$errno, &$errstr, 3);

// Query the Server
fputs($url, “GET /”.$screenNamerp.”?on_url=online&off_url=offline HTTP/1.0\\n\\n”);

// See resultant page
while(!feof($url)){
$feofi++;
$page .= fread($url,256);

A handy tool for Wsus administrators who clone PC’s and need to debug and manage Wsus. All of these functions can be done via CLI and Regedit but this tool makes them easy to perform quickly on machines with restricted accounts and strict GPO.

It performs these functions:

#1 Detect now: –wuauclt.exe /detectnow

#2 Clone Fix: — Deletes the following Registry values: SusClientIdValidation PingID SusClientId — Stops and Starts the wuauserv service. — wuauclt.exe /resetauthorization /detectnow

#3 Report now. — wuauclt.exe /ReportNow

I wrote this years ago after spending the better part of a day fixing Wsus issues and wanted a shortcut. Since then it has saved me and the techs tons of time.
