When you play with psexec.exe then you will see that you can invoke it from
your own machine so that it runs its task on any number of remote machines.
If you do it correctly then you can get each of these tasks to report its
result on your own machine. The key is that you must play with it to
understand it. Om du lekar med psexec en stund s� kan du snart se hur den
funkar.

Hi again

In order to speed up things I can see that it is faster to make a
redirection of a ls or dir command to a file.
Then from the file take out the last modified timestamp.

The thing is that dir gives some disk info.. and when adding the /b
option no diskinfo is comming up BUT the time info is omitted.

So I need something in between.

I don't quite see what your two points have to do with each other:
- Redirect the output from the "dir" command into a file
- Select a specific output format.

To me they look completely independent. What information do you actually
reqjuire? Let's see an example!

Basicly I want to monitor severel forlders on severel servers.
In each folder I want to find the newest file - if any.
Filename and LastModified timestamp.

As network traffic slows down the proces getting information from
names like \\server1\data\something...
I want to make this faster

F.example a cal to a certain remote folder with over 800 files takes
severel minutes (4 to 5 minutes)
On local server it takes a blink of an eye..

I'm using this function... (takes 5 minutes on certain folders..too
much I think)
(The timestamp array is to have full control og datetime format which
gave me some challange in danish interpretion of month day.. )



Sub CheckFolder(Fldr, mask, idx)
NewestFileInFolder = ""
Set oFolder =
CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject").getfolder(Fldr)
For Each aFile In oFolder.Files
If NewestFileInFolder = "" Then
Set NewestFileInFolder = aFile
Else
If RegExpTest(mask, aFile.Name) Then
If NewestFileInFolder.DateLastModified <
aFile.DateLastModified Then
Set NewestFileInFolder = aFile
FileList(idx) = NewestFileInFolder.Name
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 1) =
Year(aFile.DateLastModified)
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 2) =
Month(aFile.DateLastModified)
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 3) =
Day(aFile.DateLastModified)
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 4) =
Hour(aFile.DateLastModified)
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 5) =
Minute(aFile.DateLastModified)
TimeStampLastModifiedArray(idx, 6) =
Second(aFile.DateLastModified)

End If
End If
End If
Next
End Sub

(This information tells me that some processes are runing as they
suppose to do.
some file have to be updated in certain intervals.
Files certain folders gives me kinda status from processes..)
