The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

using psexec to run remote DOS commands

Asked by Benjamin297 in Windows Batch Scripting, VB Script, MS DOS

Tags: psexec, remote, dos, run, command

I am trying to use psexec to run remote DOS commands on a server. Unfortunately I am not permitted to copy the files I am running to the remote machine for security reasons. Therefore I have used the following command...

psexec cmd

This brings up a DOS window and if I type echo %COMPUTERNAME% then the remote machine name is correctly returned. This is fine, but when I type a batch file with the following...

psexec cmd
psexec echo %COMPUTERNAME%

Then the remote machine name is not returned, infact nothing is returned... Due to the fact I cannot remotely move files to the actual server I want to work on then Im assuming performing commands in this way is the only option available. However I cannot seem to execute multiple DOS commands. It is also necessary that I can read the output of the commands I use so that I can perform conditional processing.

If it helps I am able to use VBS scripts to perform these tasks if that provides the correct functionality... Ideally though a pure DOS solution would be great.

Thanks in advance...
