Hi List, Greetings to all! I am searching for a tool that can remotely login to a network computer(I have admin privileges to the remote system) and remotely list/inventorize all the filetypes in the system. I am also looking for a GUI based option that will generate a report according to a specific type of file/s (something like a text box where you enter the filetype, e.g. *.txt and it will draw up a report filetypes in all the drives including hidden and system files). I can use the C$, D$, ADMIN$ share (or use NET USE), but it is becoming cumbersome. Also, it would be great if the tool could connect to multiple systems at once. I am assuming that all the $ shares are enabled. Hoping to find a quick response :) Cheers, Sthito.
Given your description, you're 1) examing Windows systems 2) assuming that files aren't lying about what they are by file extension and 3) not concerned about Alternate Data Streams . If that's the case, then a suitable iteration of 'dir /s' should do what you want - including 'dir /s /a:h 'dir /s /a:s' or even 'dir /s /a:-dhs' The '/b' option might or might not be useful. Piping the output to a local text file, massaging them with grep (http://gnuwin32.sf.net for the Win32 version) and other tools will probably get you where you need to go.
