Greetings..
Can someone bring in some insight into this, and perhaps propose a possible solution? I'll try to be as detailed as I can.
The goal is to:
Successfully run the following on multiple remote machines (all Win2003)
\\localmachine\folder\subfolder\file.bat
(basically mapping back to the local box to execute a batch)
'localmachine' is where I am trying to run psexec from
'localmachine' houses the batch file and other necessary components
So, I have a command prompt (with domain admin priv.); I type in the following:
psexec -u DOMAIN\loginID \\remoteServer -c C:\Folder\subfolder\file.bat
Better yet, for multiple machines:
psexec @listofMachines.bat -u DOMAIN\loginID -e -d -c C:\Folder\subfolder\file.bat
6 out of 15 machines can execute without a problem
Rests don't...
Now, if I RDC into those 9 machines and run the following:
\\localmachine\folder\subfolder\file.bat
Works Great..!
Tried three versions of psexec
Here's the error (exactly as it appears):
"PSExec could not start
file.bat on
remoteServer:
The system cannot find the file specified.
The permissions on the folder and files underneath: 'Everyone' Full Control.
Any clue? Perhaps some other alternatives? VBScript?
It could be as simple as running a command remotely on multiple machines (as a scheduled task or realtime: works either way)
PowerShell's been coming along ok so far, but I can't afford to spend much time and resource plunging into it.
