and then I have a bat file that has "ipconfig /all" in it, simply when I run information technology, information technology simply closes...how do I arrive stay open? Is there a command for this or something? It needs to be fixed in the bat file, not in the Bone, I will exist sending information technology to people to tell me their MAC addresses.

• #2

@repeat off

ipconfig / all

break

• #3

TY dude you rock!

now is there a way to go far auto copy to clipboard their mac address?

• #4

Not sure you tin do that. You could actually just output the result to a text file and get them to send that to you.

@echo off

ipconfig /all > c:\ipresult.txt

pause

• #v

any fashion to machine put that in a email?

or any to re-create the txt file then all they take to do is paste it in a email back to me?

• #six

The trouble is that I don't think batch files do non have access to the clipboard. Yous tin do a mailto launch inside a batch file, only you can't prepare the body to annihilation other than a cord, only then you lot'd need to prepare that cord to the result of the control which is a tad long

I call up information technology's just asking a fiddling bit too much automation from a simple script, you demand a more complex scripting language or your own plan to exercise what you desire.

Then over again, batch guru'due south could well show me wrong.

ok cool ty...but how do I get the mailto launch to work?

mailto launch: ?

• #8

Pretty much like html:

START mailto:aid@yourdomain.com?subject=Your%%20subject%%

It'll spawn a new post from the default postal service client

Hey, that start is pretty cool.

If all yous're afterwards is the MAC addresses, and not what interfaces they become to, the information could exist made shorter:

ipconfig /all | find "Physical Accost" > c:\ipresult.txt

Merely I'g not sure how to get that into the Discipline line.

Cool, the notice feature workes great for me...TY!

Now, how do I automate a "run as" control in at that place?
I'grand wanting to run it as a certian username in this case the username is "install"

• #eleven

You tin gather this information remotely using vbscript and wmi

I don't know how to use either of them...and I don't actually know how to apply these bat files either...

Now, how practise I automate a "run equally" control in at that place?
I'k wanting to run it every bit a certian username in this instance the username is "install"

runas /username:yourdomain\install yourcommand

There are other options to consider, but that should exist plenty to get y'all started.

• #14

practise y'all know their IP already?

If so, use psexec command, psexec ipconfig /all \\computernameorip /user:install

the syntax may be off (it'due south been a while since I had to bust out the pstools) merely it should exist close.

You can do anything in a batch file that you can exercise in Windows API by calling rundll32.

For case try this from the command line:

rundll32 user32.dll LockWorkStation
