autorun to VBS / other script . . . . . .

Hi guys,

need a bit of help here. I'm trying to encrypt some USB drives using truecrypt in traveller mode.

I encrypt the drive and copy the traveller mode file fine and on a non domain PC everything works as it should.

The problem now is that it wont work on my domain machines because i have autorun disabled and would like to keep it that way. What i'd like to do is have a vbscript or anything really that I can place on the desktop (or shortcut to) that performs the same action as the original autorun.inf file on the USB drive..

Here's what the autorun.inf is doing..

[autorun]
label=TrueCrypt Traveler Disk
icon=TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe
action=Mount TrueCrypt volume
open=TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe /q background /lY /e /m rm /v "SECURE"
shell\start=Start TrueCrypt Background Task
shell\start\command=TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe
shell\dismount=Dismount all TrueCrypt volumes
shell\dismount\command=TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe /q /d

Any ideas how to get that to work??

Personally, I create a .bat file on the USB stick with the following in it:

Code:

---

TrueCrypt\TrueCrypt.exe /q background /e /m rm /v "TC"

---

and tell users to run that when they insert their USB stick

bloomin' marvelous!!

I probably should have said (if you haven't already figured it out) that you need to substitute "TC" with the file name of your True Crypt container

Have you had any issues running that from a non-admin account? The Truecrypt website says you need admin rights for traveller mode to work properly, which is one thing that's keeping me using the U3 password mechanism for some of my sticks.

Can't say I've tried it on a non-admin to be honest, sorry!

Looks like I'll have to actually put some effort in and test it myself then :-)
