msnet

Post by BobDDstryr » Thu Feb 10, 2011 10:19 pm

Hey guys,

So I'm working on a script that does a number of setup steps on a machine - one of which creates a new user account, reboots the machine, and logs into said new account. However, upon doing this, I can no longer run commands from another machine using msnet, without manually going in and reinstalling msnet. Is there any way to make sure that once msnet is installed, that it will work for all future users of the machine?

I realized that I should be able to write a .batch file to install msnet, and put it in the startup folder, so I think I can do this now.

Have you tried compiling your MS script?

Hey armsys,

No - I haven't tried compiling the script - it calls other scripts, and so I think I'd have to compile them all, after changing them to call the other executables. Also - I'm not sure how running scripts remotely that way would work - can you still use msnet, or would I need to figure out a different way to run things?

Hi Bob,
I'm unfamiliar with running scripts remotely. I'm sorry.
