Your program line will need to be<br />
<br />
cmd.exe /c &quot;c:\mybatchfile.bat&quot;<br />
<br />
or <br />
<br />
cmd.exe /c &quot;\\servername\servershare\<wbr />mybatchfil<wbr />e.bat&quot;<br />
<br />

Oh, so I DON'T copy the batch file to the distribution servers? Just make a folder on a server share, dump the batch file in that, and create a &quot;program&quot; that just runs the batch file from that share?
</div>


<div>
Also, what do I do about &quot;source files&quot;, say that there are none? How about distributing the package to the dist servers; do I have to do that?<br />
<br />
I just need to know the correct steps, never did a batch file before with SCCM.

I have created a batch file that I need to run on Pc's/Servers with the SCCM client, and I was wondering if there was any special way the &quot;packages&quot; needed to be configured, or it there were any special commands I need to type in the command line for the new &quot;program&quot;.<br />
<br />
Thanks,
