I know PsExec is perfect for sending files over a computer on a network and then execute it on that remote computer, however I can't use PsExec because I'm developing a piece of software and I can't have PsExec as a dependency (for legal reasons etc.).
What's the easiest way to achieve the execution part on a remote computer? Is it really that hard? I am already copying the .bat file with xcopy... I just need to run it.
I find it extremely hard to install software on a Linux machine as a regular user. I don't have root privileges on this machine, so I can't use any package manager system.
For example I'm trying to install a simple IRC client, but installing everything from source is a pain because I have to manually download and install every single dependency on the tree (irssi->glib->ncurses etc.. etc..).
So I downloaded ircii which seems to be the most minimalistic client I can find, it still requires some program called lex which I can't find.
Any easy solutions for this hassling task? Why don't people just deliver binaries that have all I need included in them (sort of like .exes)?
On certain remote computers when I use PsExec to run installers (.exe files), PsExec just hangs there. When I try running the installer, that PsExec transferred, directly from the remote computer (located in system32) I get the following popup error message:
NSIS Error
Error Launching Installer
This only seems to happen on 64bit computers and only for some installers. However after googling a bit I didn't seem to find a solution.
This link tells me that it might have something to do with the fact that it's running under system32.
The weird thing is that if I copy the installer from system32 to somewhere else like my desktop and run it from there, it works!
What's going on here?
Thanks
When copying the .exe to a 64bit Windows computer using the -c flag with PsExec, there's an error executing it, PsExec just stalls there.
Anyone else experiencing this?
There's some syntax that I'm missing here. Running this batch file:
for /d %a in ("c:\Documents and Settings\*.*") do mkdir "%a\Application Data\vlc"
for /d %a in ("c:\Documents and Settings\*.*") do echo qt-privacy-ask=0 > "%a\Application Data\vlc\vlcrc"
And I get this output:
\Documents was unexpected at this time.
Is it possible to create a shortcut from a .exe using batch scripting?
I use PsExec to deploy small .exe files to my workstations. Sometimes the .exe, for some reason, is incompatible with the system and opens a popup window with an error or some other message.
Is there any way to know when the executable is 'stuck' there requiring user interaction? On my side I just have psexec running and waiting for the .exe to return (which will never return because the popup is stuck there).
Since I run PsExec programmatically and I automate all the executions, when this Popup thing happens I find myself with hundreds of psexec processes stuck there and have no result back from them..
What's the best way to handle this sort of issue?
Thanks.
I need to login as SYSTEM because my Apache runs a process as a SYSTEM (that's what I see in Task Manager) and I need to run that process from the command-line (psexec.exe) to accept the EULA popup, otherwise it will just hang on the Apache side.
This command copies the program test.exe to the remote system and executes it interactively:
psexec \\marklap -c test.exe
However I need to pass some arguments to the text.exe program.
This doesn't work:
psexec \\marklap -c "test.exe /S"

I have about 20-30 Windows clients in my office. I need to programmatically access each one of them and install some software on them.
What's the simplest way to achieve something like this without using any shelf software, but just from coding?
What I would do on Linux is I would use scp to transfer the file executable and connect through ssh to run that executable (I'm not even sure this is the right way to do it on Linux).
When trying to call a web site from its IP instead of its Domain Name, I get different pages.
I'm not sure what the issue is, but since these are development servers of some client I'm doing work for I was wondering what would cause this.
