Thanks for sharing the thoughts. But, as I understand, RIS, WDS are mainly used for the Windows deployments. In my case, it is connecting to the existing windows machine and then, triggering the autoIT script for verifying the gui based installation. Thanks, Dinesh

Hi, Thanks much for your kind suggestion. I am working on a product where the installation is in Beta stage and it doesn't support the command line installation yet. My plan is like this : Automate the GUI based installation using the AutoIT. Identify 3 windows machines. Install the AutoIT on all the 3 machines. Copy the automated script to all the 3 machines. From a central machine connect to the power shell of all the 3 windows machines. Trigger the autoIT script Get the status of the test run (Auto IT script execution) Thanks, Dinesh

Thanks for the information.

Hello, I am new to the AutoIT world. I want to automate a GUI based installation and the script should run on the remote machine. As I understand, I can automate the GUI based installation using AutoIT. But I don't have any clue on how to execute the AutoIT script on the remote machine. More information : I have a windows 2k8 machine where the installer is located (This is the installer which I will be planning to automate using AutoIT). I want to run the AutoIT script on the remote windows machine (where the installer is located) and get the status of the execution. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Dinesh
