How to make a script use a auditing tool

[Guest]

I have Ezaudit software that I want to be able to write a cusomized tool so that it will run on any computer that I highlight in the left column. My problem is it always performs the audit on my own machine. Here is what I am using as a script:
"cmd /c \\server\hyena$\ezaudit\ezscan.exe auto \\%E% %C1% & pause"
Thanks for any suggestions.

What is the syntax for the ezscan software if you run it from the command line?

Such as:

ezscan.exe auto computer

I sent an email to Hyena since I was not able to find the information in their literature.
Thanks

Re: How to make a script use a auditing tool

This is from their support people:
"The command line is just >ezscan.exe auto (or /auto, both work)

Note though that the scanner is on the LAN in a folder with its corresponding configuration (config.dat) file. The command line is for calling from the logon script. When the PC logs on to the LAN, the logon script runs and launches, if needed, an audit of that PC.

You can't force a scan or initiate one remotely. Each PC calls the scan to run via its logon script."

Is there any way that I could use a vbs script if I can't use the hyena commands?
Thanks,

Based on their reply it sounds like you'd be better off running it from your users logon scripts.

You can probably use the PSExec utility from:

Thanks.
I was trying to avoid the users from knowing that the inventory was going on since my boss complains that 10-30 sec delay while the inventory goes on is not worth the effort. So I was trying to figure out a better way to do it without the logon script.
