Timeout for RunWait?

[kpu]

Does anyone know if or how you can set a time out on the RunWait Command?

Here's the really short of what I have:

$pw1 = "idontknow"

$pw2 = "istilldontknow"

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & "net use \\" & $line & "\IPC$ /U:Administrator " & $pw1 & " > temp.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & "net use \\" & $line & "\IPC$ /U:Administrator " & $pw2 & " > temp.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)

It takes about 2 minutes for these two commands to check to see if they can connect. Any way to speed it up??

Thanks,

Something like this should be close:

$pw1 = "idontknow"
$pw2 = "istilldontknow"

$cmdStub = @comSpec & " /c " & "net use \\" & $line & "\IPC$ /U:Administrator "
_runWaitTimeout(10, $cmdStub & $pw1 & " > temp.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)
_runWaitTimeout(10, $cmdStub & $pw2 & " > temp.txt", "", @SW_HIDE)

func _runWaitTimeout($timeout, $filename, $workDir = "", $flag = "")

; Returns 0 if finished normally
; Returns PID (> 0) if timeout was reached
; (PID can be used for further manipulation of the process)

    local $pid = run($filename, $workDir, $flag)
    local $start = timerStart()

    do
        processWaitClose($pid, 1)
    until not(processExists($pid)) or timerDiff($start) > ($timeout * 1000)

    return processExists($pid)

endFunc

Thanks! I'll try it out.
