wine users - Jun 2010 - Sysinternals autorunsc.exe

Hi all,

Sysinternals have just released a version of their autoruns command line tool
that's capable of scanning an offline windows install for images configured
to start automatically (very useful for tracking down malware).

How likely is it that it could be made to run under wine on Ubuntu?  I've
got to the point where I have my NTFS partition mounted, I then issue the
command:

---
$ wine ./autorunsc -z /mnt/ntfs_mount/WINDOWS /mnt/ntfs_mount/Documents\ and\
Settings/
---

...this happens:

Autoruns requires Administrator privilege to analyze an offline system

I also tried making a symlink to a drive letter in ~/.wine/dosdevices but that
didn't seem to make any difference.

My various searches for ways to get around this have come to nought, but I
confess, I'm a complete wine novice.

Grateful for your thoughts...

You probably want to use the Windows path if it is passed as a
parameter to a Windows program....

One way is to use winepath in backticks: (Not sure about the parameters..)
wine ./autorunsc -z `winepath -w /mnt/ntfs_mount/WINDOWS` Administrator

If you do:
cd ~/.wine/dosdevices
ln -s /mnt/nthfs_mount 'd:'

You should be able to use: (I'm not sure if you are using the right
parameter for "userprofile")
wine ./autorunsc -z 'd:\WINDOWS' 'd:\Documents and Settings\'

Running it under wine cmd might be easier...

You can try "wine cmd" or "wineconsole cmd"

Hi all,

I've tried all the Gert van den Berg's proposed solutions but none of
them worked for me.
If anyone has worked this out I'd be very happy to hear how.

Thank you for your support.
