i cant seem to get runas to work in a batch file runas /env /user:domainadminuser cmd
exit it works when manually entered into a command window, just not in a batch script. all that happpens is the command is echoed in a continuous loop.
I have inherited an image (for one of our products) that I can't get the "Runas" process to work.XP, SP3, latest / greatest patches;I have confirmed that I have the Secondary Logon service running; This is what my "run as" is trying to do: We sell kiosk-like systems for hospitals. We ship our systems to boot to a logon screen so our field employees can configure the system and network settings. Once they log out and log back in with the "Customer" account, I want to fire off a startup script that writes sets the registry to auto-logon with that customer account & password.So I wrote three scripts - one that launches my little "Runas" script, the "Runas" script it self, and a final one to clean up the initial "launch" script from the "startup" folder.The script will launch and call my "Runas" Script - and I *know* that the reg import bit works fine if I do it manually, but it hangs up with a "unable to locate runas process".

Do I need to add registry changes to complete this process?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have Windows XP SP2 and all the updates. I have recently been fooling around with Batch files. I have been having problems with them not running the command. What happens is I will have a correct command set up in the batch file but when i run it a cmd window opens and the command it is supposed to run continously repeats the command over and over. The command function never actually initiats anything.nothing ever runs from the batch file command. It will just keep repeating for ever and ever untill i close it. Now here is the thing. If i rename the batch file or move it from where i was editing it to another folder it will run just fine. But see the issue is. I dont want have to rename it or move it. I want it to just run like it is supposed to.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to write a batch file that will copy files from a folder on the desktop to various files on the C drive. From what I understand it should be like this: copy c:documents and settings\%userprofile%desktopinstallfilename.txt c:windowsfilename.txt
with %userprofile% in place of the actual user profile name because it will be different each time I run this batch file.This, however, is not working.
I'm running Win XP Pro SP 3, I have a file that I periodically copy to several different computers on a LAN. The exact destinations of the file change occasionally and I want to minimize the amount of maintenance involved when there is a change.
In the folder containing the file I have a shortcut to each of the destination drives. When one of the destination folders changes I update the shortcut in that folder.
If I drag the file to each of the shortcuts using the right mouse button one of the options is to copy the file to the target of the shortcut, so one way to copy the file is to manually drag it to each shortcut. Is it possible to achieve similar functionality with a batch file? It is easy enough to write a batch file that copies the files to each destination by coding the destinations into the batch file but is it possible to use a batch file to copy the file to the target of each shortcut? I suspect that parsing the .lnk files is complex but I don't know if there is another way to do this.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if you gurus can give me some direction.I run a Specials Menu on a large LCD TV at a restaurant using powerpoint. There are two specials files (lunch.pps and dinner.pps)When this system reboots, i want a batch file to determine which powerpoint file to open based on what time it is.ON BOOTUP: For instance, if it's anywhere between 11am and 3pm, open the lunch file. If its any other time, run the dinner.pps file. Make sense?
Im already running a scheduled tasks application that shuts down one and starts up the other based on what time. This works very well. Problem is, i frequently Remote Desktop into this machine and make changes. Once those changes are made, i have to reboot the system. I then want this batch file to start the appropriate presentation since the scheduled task application only works when it sees 11am or 3pm (as in the example above)I figured since you can determine time and date within a batch file, can't you do an if /then/else type script within a batch? (if its *this time* then load THIS application)
i would like to know if there's a good place to learn about makingbatch file because i don't know about the syntax. I only program in c,delphi and Java.What i would like to know is if it's possible to do a "while", "if"(Conditions) and "read/write" text files so i can do a several testlike ping few computer in my buisness and be sure that they are wellconnected by creating a file that after it read the name of the computer it will ping and it pings it, write a file with the name of this computer with a "ok" next to it if it worked and "Not connected"

I have a batch file which copies key folders and files between hard disks - It would seem that although it will accept only truncated folder and file names (e.g. progra~1) for the source, sub folder and file names are written to the target drive full length. Am I right in thinking that source names have to be written in the truncated form (after all it is, basically a DOS command)? if not how can this be done?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm searching for a good solution of archiving scanned documents. The problem: Recently we bought a new copy-machine from toshiba. It includes the feature of scanning a bunch of documents on its own harddisk. To keep up a structure (Law-firm) we give the files structured names: {casenumber}{client}{typeofdoc}{dateofdoc}.pdf
So, by now we created a structured list of files in the scan-folder of the machine. The next step is to move the files into subfolders on a different pc. These subfolders have 6 digits, simply the case numbers. It should be very easy for a program to move these files paying attention to the case number and sorting them into the right case folders..................
I am wondering if there is a way to change the date last modified through command line. The reason for this is because I want to update the date last modifed as part of a backup solution.
View 3 Replies View RelatedTo rename a group of files or folders in WinXP, open the explorer folder that contains the files and do the following:
(be careful not to include any critical windows system files or folders when applying this technique. back up with system restore first if you're not sure. also, it only makes sense to apply it to files of the same type.)
1. Highlight the files and/or folders to be renamed (remember to hold down the CTRL key to select non-adjacent files); or hold CTRL-A to select all the files and folders in a given folder
2. Let the mouse hover over the file that you wish to be the first in the series

The program will not do anyhting if i click setup so I can set it up to back up my computer. It also says ''updating status'' the whole time. Ihave left it at this screen for a long time and still nothing happened. I downloaded and installed the updrade for this from Maxtor's website, and it is still doign the same thing. Any suggestions on how to get this prgram working so I can back-up my computer?
If I use this to back-up my computer, and I use its restore feature, will I get problems on my computer that I currently have? (the main problem is with Windows Firewall, becuase i cannot enable it.
