Can AutoIT do IT?

[Elkie]

Ok perhaps i'm a stupid boy, but i wanna ask can AutoIT executes an application from another PC as if the PC itself who runs it.

for example:

PC1 wants to execute autoITupdater.exe in PC2

usually if we remotely runs an updater or installer remotely then the remote pc itself who will be installed. not the PC where the exe file located. Can autoIT do the execution remotely from PC1 and doing as if its executed locally at PC2??

i appreciate if code of example is included

K, perhaps every viewers not quite understand what am i trying to say,

i know i can use run(), or somethin, but everytime i do with those function, it runs on the remote (the one that executes the apps remotely) and not on the file existed PC(local). any solutions?

incorporate psexec from sysinternals w/ your script

Try http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/PsTools.html

Alot of us use the psexec tool in conjunction with autoit

gafrost, it didn't work. i dont' know what's wrong.

i use this script:

run(@ScriptDir & "\psexec.exe \\PC160  -i \\servPC\TEMPDATA\FROM ME\Office2003SP2.exe")

but nothing is happening, only showing the cmd window doing this and that but nothing is happening on the remote machine???? can anyone help this problem?

k, i just found out that i have use space on the source, but still it won't work here's the code i've test

run(@ScriptDir & '\psexec.exe \\PC160  -i "\\servPC\TEMPDATA\FROM ME\Office2003SP2.exe"')

It's probably your scriptdir - make sure if it has a space in it to surround it with quotes.
