RemoteIt - PSExec GUI

 Share

Recommended Posts

Edit: I am doing an overhaul of this script.  The latest dev release is in my last post on this thread.

Features Coming w/ the New Version

  • Parallel Processing
  • Mailslot Utilization for Child Processes (Workers)
  • Settings / Preferences
    • Parallel Process Limit
    • PSExec Options
  • Logging
  • Filtering (eventually...maybe release 2.0)

 

Below is the OP and the original script.

This is a script I made that is basically a front-end for PSEXEC by sysinternals. I built it becuase we use a tool (at my work) called RemoteExec which is fairly expensive. This isn't quite as nice, but real close.


This tool is intended for Domain Administrators. Requires admin rights on machines executing.

*Sourcecode Requires psexec.exe (downloadable from Here )

Fixed: Remove Button and Browse Func
Working On: Code Cleanup Parallel PSexec Execution
Unfinished features: Hardware/Software Filtering using WMI
Future feature: Alternate Credential ability

remoteit.au3

I am performing an LDAP query for the browse function.

Func GetRootDSE()
    $RootDSE = ObjGet("LDAP://RootDSE")
    Return $RootDSE.get( "DefaultNamingContext" )
EndFunc

Func GetComputers($domainname)
    $objComputers = ObjGet("LDAP://CN=Computers," & $domainname)
    local $strComputers
    For $obj In $objComputers
        $strComputers = $strComputers & $obj.Name & ","
    Next
    $obj = ""
    $objComputers = ""
    $strComputers = StringLeft($strComputers,StringLen($strComputers)-1)
    $strComputers = StringReplace($strComputers,"CN=","")
    $arrComputers = StringSplit($strComputers,",")
    _ArrayDelete($arrComputers,0)
    _ArraySort($arrComputers)
    Return $arrComputers
EndFunc

This function only works in a domain or active directory environment.

I have put psexec.eexe in c:\ but when try to compile script I get error:"Error Adding file psexec.exe"

How I can resolve that?

Have a look at the pstools front end in this post Here

psexec.exe must be in the same dir as the script when you compile it. That should work.

Does not work with the current newest release of AutoIt.. :)

Error looking for GuiList.au3...

Ok, I'm looking into it. Looks like UDF for Gui Listview changed names (in version 3.2.10.0) to GuiListView.au3. Reflecting change in original post.\

There appear to be other issues since the version upgrade. debugging...

Ok, I think I got all the bugs. Pretty much just function renaming to reflect UDFs. I updated the source above and am planing on implementing the ability to supply alternate login credentials.

I spoke too soon....still more bugs, please hold.

Ok, I finally got around to fixing all the problems since the new version of AutoIt. It is working again like it was. I simplified the hostlist file load and save functions.

Do you have a list of what the result codes mean?

Thanks

no, but if you give me the code and what caused the error to occur I'd be happy to help. I could also add an error handler of sorts.

Startup Agent It is my small Startup Agent. You can install programs on startup Domain pc without Admin rights.

Looks like they moved those vars into EditConstants.au3 You can add an Include for it at the top of the script. Not sure if the rest works either. :D

There appear to be other issues as well. I'll check it out when I have time.

I made an update to this. Works as it did before.
I'm tempted to implement the "Parallize PSexec" made up by cherdeg into this script. Will update when/if it happens.

See 1st for Latest Update.

psexec works nice ... when it's not hanging ...

I use it quite often and sometimes, for unknown reason, it decides to hang and every next execution attempts fails. I haven't found a solution yet to this problem; I need everytime to terminate the remote service it starts ... been looking for a replacements but didn't find one yet.

SNMP_UDF ... for SNMPv1 and v2c so far, GetBulk and a new example script

wannabe "Unbeatable" Tic-Tac-Toe

Paper-Scissor-Rock ... try to beat it anyway :)

From my experience, psexec hangs when an interactive process is run non-interactively, if that makes sense. If you don't tell a program to run interactively and it (let's say) prompts a message box to be clicked, the user will never see the box, hence it will not ever get clicked and will just hang. I'm sure there's other (repeatable) instances where it hangs, but the interaction factor, or maybe even an error message could hold up the process. Just my two cents.

I need to remark that the work to "Parallize PSexec" was done mostly by MANADAR for a function to ping lots of hosts in parallel. I simply modified it to suit my needs. It's always nice to get credit, but this time all the credit belongs to MANADAR.

Well, it's been several years since I put this together and decided to revisit it.  Of course it doesn't work out-of-the-box anymore.  As I have learned a lot since I put this together, I decided to give it a go at updating it.  I plan to incorporate more intermediate/advanced methods as well as exhibit best practices and coding standards.  A few specific things I plan to address:

  • Change code to OnEvent execution instead of large While loop  - Done
  • Parallelize execution via multi-processing - Done
  • Utilize STDOUT in lieu of using temp files - In Progress
  • Incorporate multi-process communication through >Mailslots - Done

Just working on the GUI so far...a good way to go still, but here is my new "GUI" code so far.

Things To Do:

  • Create Settings GUI
  • Parallel / Worker Execution Testing
    • Mailbox Communication
    • Status Window Interaction
  • Host List Browser
  • PSExec Integration
  • Log / Export Capability - In Progress
  • Add Start/Finish Info To Execution Status
  • Bug Fixes - Ongoing

 

Please keep in mind that it is not fully functional.  The PSEXEC integration is not yet in place.  For now it is merely a GUI will some parallel processing pieces that utilize a MailSlot for process communication.
