So some common things that may be useful for the people who have LANs with a fair base of users to maintain - these are a few simple examples of Remote PC tool calls from VBS.
(please make note that i 'crush' my code to eliminate var usage and shorten code length, works either way...) First is the simple command line to open MMC to a remote connection (self contained Sub Form)
The next example is again a simple command line but this one is for Terminal Service (again in sub form)
The Last is for the totally rocking XP Remote Assistance window(sub form) - if you have not attempted to script its usage yet, give it a go....it sucks. - i realize that this is written in dumb script but that is all XP allows for unless you write your own RA.... - i know it is ugly stuff but sadly there is no command line to pass for it. - for being a lame dumb script it is fairly reliable.
ok, so that is the basic connection tools for an admin (i know i left out pc anywhere and the PSTools)
BTW: some times these remote connection tools will not work due to firewall/windows glitches etc, try conf.exe it has a built in desktop sharing ability.
next post i think i will drop some of my remote shutdown features...dunno, will have to see....
I am interested in your Remote LAN PC Management HTA. I realize these sort of apps are the result of a lot of hard work and are often used in production environments making them sort of protected. But could you send me a copy or even post it here on the forum?
