    String error

    Post by antknee »

    I am trying to get this script working. It seems simple but I keep getting an error that reads:encountered end of line while processing a string token.POSITION:At line:16 char:2+ }I have no idea what that means.... uploads/24068/GetService.txtBasically I just want it to ping the computers, if they are online, check if the Firewall service is running. If not online, skip the computer. Thanks

    Probably this:
    write-host $comp is OFFLINE -background "RED" -foreground "BLACk"
    Should be this:
    write-host "$comp is OFFLINE" -background RED -foreground BLACk
