I already wrote a thread like this, but i do not get ahead with the other reason.

So, I have to get the hostname of my primary dns server. First I will identify the IP-Adress of my primary dns - Thats no problem, it works. Then i want to have the hostname, so i have to do a nslookup to the ip address. I do this with the following code:

Set oShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
Set oExec = oShell.Exec("nslookup " & sPrimaryDNS_IP)
   Do Until oExec.StdOut.AtEndOfStream
        sNsLookUp_ReturnValue = oExec.StdOut.ReadAll
   Loop
Set oExec = Nothing
MsgBox sNsLookUp_ReturnValue

This code works too, BUT everytime I execute this, a dos box appears. finally this code will be used as a part of a logonscript and then it annoys, if a dos box appears everytime you log in.
Now i want hide this dos box, but i do not know how i can do that? If it is possible, it would be very nice if i can do this without any tools, only with vbscript.
As far as i know, if i execute this command with "Run", it is not possible to get a return value to edit?

I tried a WMI-Procedure too, but fot this i need to be an administrator, that shuldn't be like this.

I hope you can help me, i'm on the ropes :-)

Thanks,

KR BMeX


P.S. I'm sorry, but i hope you can understand me or my problem :-) my english is not the best as you see.

Alternately, you can use the Run method, pipe out the output to a text file, and then read that text file for the values
