windows command line to scan remote computers for .pst

Any command will take a while since you have to look through all domain USERS folders for PST files.

That said, open Command.exe and try FIND. That should work.

Could you assist with the syntax for the find command? We are looking for *.pst on the C: drive on remote computers.

If you want to do it on regular base, this app might come handy. You setup parameters, domain, admin and password in main program interface, then go to WEB SERVER tab, START it and do search using web interface.

Using CMD..

1. Make stns.txt containing computer names...

host1
host2

Select allOpen in new window

2. Download and extract psexec

3. Open cmd window as domain admin.

4. Run psexec, sending output to c:\pstfiles.txt

Notes:
a. find /v "too long" filters out the possible extraneous info when the DIR command is run
b. If your pst files reside in different folders than c:\users, adjust as needed.

psexec @stns.txt cmd /c dir /s "c:\users\*.pst" | find /v "too long" >> c:\pstfiles.txt

Select allOpen in new window

5. View results in c:\pstfiles.txt

Answers http:#a41190024 ; http:#a41190054 ; and http:#a41190288  correctly address this issue. Suggest 3-way split

Neither 41190288 nor 41190024 addresses remote scans across domain computers. A split, if any, should be more like:
80% 41190054
10% 41190288
10% 41190024
