similar to: any plans on getting psexec / cmdat equivalent to Samba?

Hello ! If anybody want`s to implement the psexec unix port or samba equivalent, maybe taking a look at xCmd from Zoltan Csizmadia at http://www.codeguru.com/Cpp/I-N/network/remoteinvocation/article.php/c5433/ may help a LOT and is a very good example. (This one seems to work similar like psexec - but it is available with sourcecode!) I don`t know if the author is still reachable via this

psexec util (from sysinternals) is a tool which allows to execute commands on a remote Windows machine. A command like that: psexec.exe \\192.168.1.147 -u Administrator -p password C:\test.bat would run C:\test.bat as administrator on a Windows workstation with IP address 192.168.1.147. Quite cool, you don't have to install anything additional (like SSH server) on Windows, and you can

Hello! I don`t know if there is a port of psexec for unix yet (haven`t followed the list for some time) - but since it has been discussed on this list several times and i didn`t find any news about the current state of the "psexec unix port"- i`d like to tell that i found a psexec equivalent by chance - WITH SOURCECODE INCLUDED ! :) take a look at

Hi, this is really great, you can get Windows command

I was wondering if there is a pstools / psexec (tools by Sysinternals) equivalent, which could be run on Linux machine to execute a process on a remote Windows machine?

I notice when issuing the command "net rpc user testuser -S ip_address -U administrator%password" that the testuser gets added to the remote machine (Win 2k3) sucessfully, however the account is disabled. After adding the user remotely it requires that the administrator log into the remote machine "ip_address" to enable the newly created account. Is there a way to add a user

Excuse me for being ignorant, but what is ssh.exe? A win32

Hi, I've got a simple PHP script which is using psexec from sysinternals to execute commands on a remote machine (which uses SMB under the hood). If I run it from DOS it works fine. If I run the same script via apache it hangs. Fired up Wireshark and had a look at what was going on. In the working version the treeconnect calls go to the IPC$ and then the ADMIN$ accounts on the remote machine.

update: - fixed smbd for win95-style profile-locating (it now works, thank you to everyone who sent in log files to get this fixed) - various modes tested and confirmed as working: * ROLE_STANDALONE security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = no domain logons = no * ROLE_DOMAIN_PDC security = user encrypt passwords = yes domain master = yes

Is there an equivalent solution for NET ADMIN / RCMD / PSEXEC within Samba allowing Samba servers to start / run programs on Windows clients? Maybe it is one of the RPC or RAP commands? -- Michael Lueck Lueck Data Systems Remove the upper case letters NOSPAM to contact me directly.

There is a reason most NMS systems used SNMP in the past and REST apis past 7+ years. They don't use CLIs except toy Expect type scripts.. Not just security but better error handling and more.

Al like any open-source or free sofware you need to put the leg work into what you want it to be. My company is actually creating something using TINC and we believe in it. If successful we'll be giving back to TINC monetarily in a big way to make TINC even better so if TINC isn't for you keep an eye on further developments in the future.

SNMP is mainly used for monitoring, not _server_ automation. Also, it's inherently insecure for anything else - only SNMPv3 offers any kind of encryption, and it's DES - 56 bit only, and you can easily brute-force it on an average computer. If you could provide some serious articles about why is CLI insecure, I'd be interested to read. Tomasz Chmielewski https://lxadm.com On

automation refers to day to day vpn management from non-IT layman... not a geek running shell/ansible scrpits.

hi, is there a possibility to start a windows program remotely from linux via samba share? thanks, michael

Just search online why in general that is insecure via CLI vs programmatic for first class automation.. there is a reason why snmp, rest, ... exist.

You've mentioned security issues in your previous email, but now you're hopping to management issues. Have you tried Ansible, Chef or Puppet for automation? It works well for hundreds of servers, different services and not just one kind of VPN.

Programmatic management with first class APIs is preferred for larger deployments..
