Question Possible to Incorporate PSexec?

[Swatto]

Hello all,

Im thinking about writing a simple app that I can use at work when fixing remote user machines. Just wondering if it is possible to incorporate a copy of psexec.exe into my program so that I can run applications remotely?

Thanks for any help you can give.

Ive been speaking to someone who said I could invoke a call to cmd and run in that way but I would have to store the psexec.exe somewhere? Would there be any other way that I can run applications on remote machines by giving an assett number (computer name) and file path in my program?

I use psexec at work (part of the sysinternals suite from microsoft) to remotely run programs as long as I know the computer name and direct path on the machine to where the *.exe file is located - I would like to see if I can make a GUI app using vb.net that can do something similar, is this possible please?
