Hi All,
I hope this question is going to make sense.
I am trying to obtain the MAC Address of a remote PC, using psexec \\pcname and running the command "ipconfig /all".
If I run the psexec command from my machine via a command prompt, ipconfig /all is successfully run on the remote machine, and I can see it's MAC address, however, if I run it via TProcess, in Lazarus, the output I get from TProcess is the output from psexec (successfully run and exited with error code 0) rather than the output from ipconfig. How can I code TProcess, so that it shows me the output from the "ipconfig /all" command instead?

I hope that makes sense?

Richard

Hello,

This is not exactly what you asked for, but you could simply redirect the output with something like "ipconfig /all > ipconfig..txt" then read the contents of ipconfig.txt (or whatever name you gave to the output file). You must take care where you put the output file, though: you must have the rights to write in that folder.

Of course my solution is only a quick trick, the answer to your question would be much cleaner and much more interesting.

Thanks Bart, but I have already read that page and my code is based on that. -------------- next part --------------

Hi Frederic, that's a good idea and I hadn't thought of that work around. I'll give it a go

Hi,

instead of using "psexec" you could try "getmac /S <pcname>".

Hope this helps.

Ingo

?Well, I never knew that command existed. Thanks very much, that was exactly what I was looking for.

Richard?
