The syntax is: code: :install setl "SU_PASSWORD=password" setl "SU_COMMANDLINE=\\hounas01\comm_it\applications\uniprint\uniprintclient.exe /s" setl "SU_DOMAIN=domain_name" shell "%comspec% /c su administrator" Su is installed and working. I get no errors when I try to launch the install from a command prompt w/o using su. [ 18. February 2003, 21:18: Message edited by: NuclearKitten ]

If so (I may be wrong, but) you would have to copy it up to a location where the script could invoke it under the context of the user logging on. That could mean one public share on a given server, or copied to the scripts folder on all your logon server (through replication). Then your script would have to reference the call to SU.exe with a qualified path. For example: @lserver+"\su.exe" or something. If you have the resource kit installed on every client, then forget everything I just said. I hope that helps? _________________________ silence is golden, but duct tape is silver

You can find them easilly using the search function of the board. _________________________ How to ask questions the smart way <-----------> Before you ask

But for some reason when I call this program over the network, it does not work. It does not give an error - it just does not start the silent install...
