Thanks, I see it now ;-)
Here is the text of the original post:
i have two scripts A and B, i need to run B on a lot of computers
so i use A to copy B to each server and execute it and repeat the same with the next server.
but sometimes some compters dont respond to A properly, so it keeps trying and the script hangs there..
how can i avoid this?
First off, we cannot really address the issue of script A hanging when a remote computer does not respond unless you give some details about it, like:
- what scripting language? - what is script A doing at the point that it hangs because a computer is not responding to it? - why is it that some computers don't respond "properly", are they behaving incorrectly, or are the just turned off?
Script A might be changed to interact with the remote computers in such a way that it will be able to detect the lack of response. Or you could detect that the computer is up with a ping test, or by looking at the output of a NET VIEW command.
More specifics might become evident when we know what it is that you are already doing.
