friends Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 hi all. I wonder can we check a networked computer's Process is running or not ? If can... how ? I know there is a ProcessExists() command, but I tested to check the networked PC, I couldn't find the solution. Anybody knows how ? I wanted to check on other networked PCs, if a particular Process is running, for example, the "notepad.exe" process. Your help or suggestion is very much appreciated. Thank you.
this-is-me Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 [short Answer]You can't with autoit.[Long Answer]Try pslist from http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pstools.shtml Who else would I be?
Gloubs Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 Hi, I have quite the same problem, I think the key is to launch your script directly on the remote PC. To do this, you can try PsExec (again from Sysinternals ( it's free) or RemoteExec (from Isdecisions ... commercial) but assuming this is done, the processexist command should work... anyway it seems to work for me
Matt @ MPCS Posted September 13, 2004 Posted September 13, 2004 If it is possible to have a process execute on the terminal you want to monitor processes on then just create a script that checks for said process, throw the result in a text file and have your local script check the text file for the result. *** Matt @ MPCS
