ZENworks for Desktops cool and fast Remote Control Solution
4506
Do you need a very cool solution to remote control your users without ConsoleOne and without any searching to find the right user or the right workstation?
Look at this script, that creates a little cmd with the right parameters to start a remote control session. You have to define a directory on the server (Z:\remote), where the ZfD Application creates the cmd file. Now make a simple ZfD Application with the script and give it to your users.
If a user calls the Helpdesk, told him to start the ZfD Application which creates the cmd file in the given directory. Go to the directory and you will see a cmd File with the User- and Workstationname. Double-click and enjoy the remote session. After the end of the session the cmd file will be deleted.
Generate cmd:
set PROG=Z:\mgmt\consoleone\1.36e-zfd7\bin\desktop4.exe -c"RemoteControl" -t"0" -s"2"
echo start %PROG% -w"%ZENDN%" -n"AC-TREE" >Z:\remote\%NWUSERNAME%-%ZENWSNAME%.cmd
echo start Z:\remote\work\remove.cmd Z:\remote\%NWUSERNAME%-%ZENWSNAME% >>Z:\remote\%NWUSERNAME%-%ZENWSNAME%.cmd
echo exit >>Z:\remote\%NWUSERNAME%-%ZENWSNAME%.cmd
Remove cmd:
del %1.cmd
exit

If we do not have %ZENDN% and %ZENWSNAME% defined as windows environment variables what do you use? I think the workstation name is pretty obvious, but ZENDN is a little obscure. A little more information is needed to get this coolsolution running in my tree.

Thanks, this is nice. I was wondering where you got a few things from.
Where do the variables come from:
ZENDN
ZENWSNAME
They aren't pre existing Variables as NWUSERNAME is.
Do you have to edit RemAgent.INI in the folder with Desktop4.exe for this to work?
