Hello All, just found out about Neowin, looks fantastic!
I have what I think is a very simple question in VB.NET, I'm just starting out with the language.
To run a standard application, I typically run:
Shell(mxcl -d)
within a button to launch the program in question. I'd like however to be able to run this command to a comptuer on my lan (remote computer). I've tried PsExec with no luck. I've tried something along the lines of:
Shell(psexec \\computerName -u "my name" -p Password "mxcl -d")
Not sure if I'm using PsExec correctly, but that's besides the point. I don't need to use PsExec at all, just want my remote computers to launch these programs!
Thanks for reading, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Surely this is something that they've been thinking about for at best a few years and at worse 12 months? Could they not have launched 17.1 as 18, 17.2 as 19, 18.0 as 20 etc until they line up? It wouldn't fit the perfect new major os version with iPhone launch but there will probably be some folks in a few months asking what happened to iOS 19-25 (along with a tonne of youtube videos click baiting on it)
