RUN AS.....

I am needing to run an executable on over 300 machines. It requires admin rights to do so. Is 
there a way in a batch file to pass the admin user name and password so as to run the 
executable in the the form of RUN AS... so I can put it in a login script?

OK, I found part of the answer.

runas /user:mac\administrator program.exe

this still asks for the password. Is there a way to perhaps put that
in a text pad and have the prompt read the text to get the password
and finish running?

RE: Re: RUN AS.....

Hi!

I had a requirement recently to run something similar on a few hundred
machines, try this:

http://www.commandline.co.uk/sanur/

It is called Sanur.

The string you're looking to implement would possibly look like this:
(beware, this might wrap to the next line)

runas /noprofile /user:<DOMAIN>\<USER>
"%logonserver%\NETLOGON\WPA_Patch\WindowsXP-KB893357-v2-x86-ENU.exe
/quiet /norestart" | %logonserver%\netlogon\sanur <PASSWORD>

Or, if you run sanur from CMD prompt, it will give you the following
info:

SANUR v1.0.3.1 Commandline RUNAS Automation Utility for 2000/XP/2003.
Copyright (c) 2001-2003 Ritchie Lawrence, http://www.commandline.co.uk.

RUNAS <options> | SANUR password
RUNAS <options> | SANUR /i [drive:][path]filename

/i Pipes the password from the specified file into RUNAS

Example usage:-

runas /u:domain\username program.exe | sanur pa55w0rd

Re: RUN AS.....

Why not use psexec from the pstools? 
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/utilities/pstools.mspx

you could easily do:
psexec \\computername -u user -p password command.exe

The command has to be in the destination path.  if it's a local batch
file on your machine, add the -c switch and it will copy it to the
destination box.  Also tossing in the -d will have it NOT wait for the
process to finish, and -i if it needs to interact w/ the desktop.

Just my two cents worth....

RE: Re: RUN AS.....

Here is a script written by Ken Mazie (thanks Ken) that does what you
wanted to do in your original request. It uses password.txt to read a
password list. The execute section is where you do the programs. Watch
out for wrapped lines.

::intent is to enumerate a domain, connect to the machines, and push out
updates.

:: Right now it's set up to parse a text file looking for the machines
to hit.

:: Written by Ken Mazie

:: <at> echo off

cls

:variables

:: set all initial variables here

set password=

set domain=

set admin=administrator

set match=no

:getdate

Re: RUN AS.....

I appreciate all of the help with this. I have tried several things,
batch file, VBScript, PsExec and I have found several solutions. The
problem now it that the windows update I am running
WindowsXP-KB931836-x86-ENU.exe requires you click "I agree" to the
license. I haven't been able to get the done unattended. I have tried
a variety of switches, including /q /u /s /passive /quiet, all to no
avail. Any ideas? I need this to run without interaction from my
users. This would only confuse them to click "next" "I agree" and
"finish". (sorry for the sarcasm)

RE: Re: RUN AS.....

According to the switches indicated by WindowsXP-KB931836-x86-ENU.exe /?,
/quiet or /passive should do what you need.  I always do this and have never
had a problem, but I've only done it on local machines.  Since you're
sending the command to a remote machine, you might need to use quotes to
pass the entire command string including arguments.
