Start remote process windows xp

In the above example the PID for firefox. However, I have tried both listing and killing a process on a computer on the network without success. I typed tasklist. Please let me know whwer i am wrong. More than likely the ports are being blocked by a firewall or a policy is in place preventing remote management of the computer you are trying to reach. I can do this however when i type in the domain and password it connects and then requests a password again even though the aaccount I am trying to access has no password.

I have fiddled with this to death and cant figure it out. If it still does not work for you, you may want to run a sniffer Wireshark and see if other ports are needed. Instead, download it from this link. Not at all. Try this link. Help plz! I'm using XP pro. Is system you are trying to connect, part of a domain or workgroup?

If so, you may need to prefix the user name with the domain or workgroup. Also, make sure the account you are using has the necessary rights to kill processes on the remote system.. If the ports on the firewall of the remote machine are not open, than you can't use the above commands.

Otherwise you need to use another method or physically access the machine. This info really helped me with getting rid of the virus called Symantec at my office. Works like a charm! Any ideas?

Thanks this was a really great article. Thank you so much. I just wanted to have a quick batch file to kill a program on the laptop to save me walking through the house — but now walking through the house seems a fantastically easy option — oooh I love Windows!!!

It's not Windows, but your lack of understanding with how computers works, is the reason why you are having problems. To be honest with you, what you have done is comprised security to make tasklist work by disabling the firewall.

Also, the fact that you had to "assign" a password to the user account which indicates no password existed in the first place is probably another reason why you should not go around killing processes in the first place. Ports are how computers communicate with each other see Wikipedia definition and has nothing to do with it just being a Windows operating system. I didn't say that I LEFT the Firewall switched off — but as a previous correspondent it was the only way I could get it to work — nobody yet has suggested another way to get it to work —.

Sorry you took my comments the wrong way. But if you can't take constructive criticism, especially when security is being compromised regardless if it's at home or work …then adios.

I don't know why when impersonation is used a remote process is not allowed network access, but Mark R mentions it on the PsExec web page, so I take it to be true. Friday, January 22, AM.

You cand do that also with WMI, send the user and password to the remote process and use impersonation to do all your access to shared resources.
