how to link batch file with .ini or .txt

[vip]

i have following batch file

connect.bat
@Echo Off
SetLocal
(Set RAS_con=connection)
(Set RAS_usr=user)
(Set RAS_pwd=password)
:Online_check
Rasdial | Find /V /N "" | FindStr /R "^\[3\]" && (
Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Still online. Delaying 60s...
Ping -n 61 localhost > NUL
Goto Online_check)
Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Offline. Reconnecting to "%RAS_con%"...
Rasdial "%RAS_con%" %RAS_usr% %RAS_pwd% && Goto Online_check
Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Error connecting to "%RAS_con%".
EndLocal

and i want to link it to a .ini or .txt file which contain connection,user and
password

for e.g. a info.ini can be like this

info.ini
(Set RAS_con=connection)
(Set RAS_usr=user)
(Set RAS_pwd=password)

Easiest thing to do is set the INI file as just another CMD file and call it:


info.cmd

Code: Select all

Set RAS_con=connection
Set RAS_usr=user
Set RAS_pwd=password

connect.cmd

Code: Select all

@echo off
call info.cmd
:online_check
. . . .

If you insist on using an extension of INI then you can do this:


info.ini

Code: Select all

Set RAS_con=connection
Set RAS_usr=user
Set RAS_pwd=password

connect.cmd

Code: Select all

@echo off
for /f "delims=" %%a in (info.ini) do %%a
:online_check
. . . .

thank u sooooooooo.... much

in first step i did following things:

connect.cmd

Code: Select all

@Echo Off
call info.cmd 
 :Online_check
  Rasdial | Find /V /N "" | FindStr /R "^\[3\]" && (
    Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Still online. Delaying 60s...
    Ping -n 61 localhost > NUL
    Goto Online_check)
  Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Offline. Reconnecting to "%RAS_con%"...
  Rasdial "%RAS_con%" %RAS_usr% %RAS_pwd% && Goto Online_check
  Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Error connecting to "%RAS_con%".
  EndLocal

info.cmd

Code: Select all

Set RAS_con=connection
Set RAS_usr=user
Set RAS_pwd=password

and it works perfectly

IInd step:

connect.cmd

Code: Select all

@Echo Off
for /f "delims=" %%a in (info.ini) do %%a
 :Online_check
  Rasdial | Find /V /N "" | FindStr /R "^\[3\]" && (
    Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Still online. Delaying 60s...
    Ping -n 61 localhost > NUL
    Goto Online_check)
  Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Offline. Reconnecting to "%RAS_con%"...
  Rasdial "%RAS_con%" %RAS_usr% %RAS_pwd% && Goto Online_check
  Echo %DATE% %TIME% -- Error connecting to "%RAS_con%".
  EndLocal

info.ini

Code: Select all

Set RAS_con=connection
Set RAS_usr=user
Set RAS_pwd=password

but in second step a error message appears like below:

Get rid of the @echo off and see if you can tell what's messing up.

i repeat IInd step and this time it works perfectly


thanx.....

and one more thing is there any way to encrypt password for e.g. when we run connect.cmd it prompt for connection name user name password and then 1. press 1 to save info
2. press 2 not to save info
and save this info into info.ini with encrypted password.
