Hi. Thank you very much for PAExec. Local Machine: Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit SP1 Joined to a domain Logged in as domain user "domain\firstname.lastname" "domain\\firstname.lastname" Remote Machine (IP Address = 192.168.0.201): Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit Joined to a workgroup UAC Disabled Administrator is logged into the desktop Elevated command prompt command line: paexec.exe /AcceptEula \\\\192.168.0.201 -u 192.168.0.201\\Administrator -p password -c "C:\\path to\\file.exe" Output: PAExec v1.21 - Execute Programs Remotely Copyright (c) 2012-2013 Power Admin LLC www.poweradmin.com/PAExec Connecting to 192.168.0.201... Starting PAExec service on 192.168.0.201... Copying C:\\path to\\file.exe remotely... PAExec returning exit code -8 I noticed that during the time "Starting PAExec service on 192.168.0.201..." is displayed, a new file was created on the remote machine, C:\Windows\PAExec-18408-LOCALMACHINE.exe for example, where LOCALMACHINE is the machine name of where PAExec was run. After PAExec fails, that exe no longer exists but the following new file remains on the remote machine: C:\Windows\PAExec_Move0.dat The contents of PAExec_Move0.dat is the same as "c:\path to\file.exe" but it just has a different name. I ran ProcMon on the remote machine and noticed that the remote PAExec process is trying to call CreateFile on "C:\path to\file.exe" but fails with PATH NOT FOUND. Using PsExec with the same command line works as expected. However, when I run the following command, it works: paexec.exe /AcceptEula \\\\192.168.0.201 -u 192.168.0.201\\Administrator -p password -c -csrc "C:\\path to\\file.exe" file.exe I did not expect to have to: 1. pass the -csrc paramter; this should be the default when specifying -c 2. pass the name of the exe again; this should be the default Thank you very much.
