batch file need support

bat2ray · 08-15-2006, 05:58 PM

hi..
recently i'm working with a batch file to install some patches. the installation source is in computer A and the batch file file nammed install.bat.

everytime i want to update the patches on computer B,C,D and so on, i have to edit the batch files, copy and paste the batch files to computer B, C, D and so on.

what i'm planning to do is to create another batch file (call.bat) on computer B,C,D and so on that will call the install.bat to do the installation whenever i want to.

i'm poor on batch file so anyone can provide me the call.bat coding?

or how to create just install.bat on computer A that will deploy the installation on the other computer.

thanks ....

i think if you put the bat files in the root of the C drive or a folder
click start, type cmd in run, press enter. then if they are in the C drive just type the name and press enter. If these are registry patches , if they have the .reg extention you can run them from windows.

Are these computer networked? Are they logging into a domain?

yes they were networked. the B, C, D and so on computer is in the workgroup but the computer A is logging to domain.

Can computers B,c,d share drives with A?

Map the drive on comp B,C ,D to the drive on computer a that has the file you want to run. Then you can just open that file on any those computers and run the file.

thanks whicked32 thats gave me an idea to create short cut for the install.bat.

but 1 thing more is i need the batch file to run the patches in a administrator mode.its a .exe file

the patches is like this...

\\mygsermys1ms002\share\Patches\Windows_MS05-050_Patch\WXPW2K_TI_10\install.exe
\\mygsermys1ms002\share\Patches\Windows_MS05-051_Patch\WXPW2K_TI_10\install.exe
\\mygsermys1ms002\share\Patches\Windows_MS05-052_Patch\WXP_TI_10\install.exe
\\mygsermys1ms002\share\Patches\Windows_MS05-049_Patch\WXPW2K_TI_10\install.exe
\\mygsermys1ms002\share\Patches\Windows_MS05-047_Patch\WXPW2K_TI_10\install.exe
