Does the account you are running the psexec command have an account and permissions on those remote servers? If not, you will need to pass a username a password for the remote servers as well.

Try this instead:

psexec.exe \\computername –i –u DOMAIN\username –p Password –d @list.txt c:\file.exe

You can add those options after file.exe and they will be passed through to the other machine as you put them.

Being 2008 are we hitting some UAC error or similar perhaps? Does anything get to the remote server, does your end give an error, if so what?

Here the error: and yes all my server is 2008

C:\install>psexec.exe @list.txt -i -d "c:\file.exe -s ip -p 444 -c 444"

PsExec could not start ?i on SERVER1:
The system cannot find the file specified.

How about trying the command without the @file and try a single machine first - one that you have verified that C:\file.exe actually exists.
