Hi,
would anyone want to provide a hint on how to fetch system values over the LAN?
I need:
processor
installed ram
free diskspace
installed MS SQL Server and installed Service Packs ...
OS + installed Service Packs
name of the PC
Also I would like to copy a portion from the registry ....
Also: Is there a way to display a message on the remote machine, where the program was started from and what data it fetched? Or is that overdoing it?
Meant to run before a software installation or after a faulty one as tool for a busy hotline. Thanks for any hints.
Fetch system values over the local network?

You can run Macro Scheduler macros using msNet. So a Macro Scheduler macro could be set to retrieve those results from the local machine and that macro can be run remotely by another PC via msNet.

Powershell is it
One alternative would be: Check out the not much known Powershell by Microsoft. Free scripting language, reliable (ahem) and not overall complicated (2 x ahem). It helps to receive system values, but is very limited, if you need to proceed from there on.
