To be certain I just ran the following from PowerShell 2.0 winrs -r:myremotehost cmd This produced a CMD.EXE prompt from the remote machine. I am not set up on the domain for other than integrated secuity and do not want to change things to test regular authentication or the use of a standard user a...

Hi trig It's still clear as musd too me. Perhaps I am just a little thick but I don't follow. WHat is an orpahn file? WHy is this different than a regular file? It sounds like you have a bunch of files that you want to look at and delete some. What is the log you speak of? What does it have to do wi...

If that works then the previous GC code should have worked. YOu must have had a typo somewhere. THat's OK as this will also do what you need.

YOu can filter output with this one FINDSTR [/E] [/L] [/R] [/S] [/X] [/V] [/N] [/M] [/O] [/F:file]         [/C:string] [/G:file] [/D:dir list] [/A:color attributes] [/OFF[LINE]]         strings [[drive:][path]filename[ ...]]   /B         Matche...

First rule of scripting/administration - KISS! Always look at the builtin OS utilities first. This will save many hundreds of wasted hours and errors. If you just want to learn xcripting then this is not the best problem to start with. Start with: 1. How to enumerate files in script. 2. How to read ...
