Net View Access Denied

[JRL]

I have a script that has a line that fails to work on 64 bit Windows 7 that used to work on WinXP. The line that fails is:

RunProgram>cmd /c net view /domain:engineering > %temp_dir%EngTest.txt

I have 2 workgroups and two domains. I use "net view" with each of them to create a list of all the computers on my network. I have four RunProgram> lines identical to the one above except that they each have a different domain or workgroup name. The other three lines work fine this one line does not. It gives an "Access denied" error.


On the same Win7 computer.
Running "net view /domain:engineering" from a DOS prompt works fine.

Running "net view /domain:engineering" from "Start" > "Search Programs and Files" works fine.

I tried putting the line in a batch file and running the batch file. Again it works every way I run it except from Macro Scheduler RunProgram> and ExecuteFile>

I tried putting Let>RP_Admin=1 ahead of the RunProgram> line and it still fails.

Any suggestions welcome.

Macro Scheduler will be running the 32 bit version of cmd.exe and in turn it is running the 32 bit command. Try this:

RunProgram>%SYS_NATIVE%\cmd /c net view /domain:engineering > %temp_dir%EngTest.txt

You may also need RP_ADMIN if it's an admin thing or run Macro Scheduler/the macro as admin first.

SYS_NATIVE did the trick.

Thank you very much.
