friends Posted September 13, 2004 Share 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 Share 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloubs Posted September 13, 2004 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt @ MPCS Posted September 13, 2004 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
