Introduction
VNCScan has some very powerful scripting features built into it that allows you to write a script inside the console and then execute the script on any remote computer that fits certain criteria The system requirements for the remote system are listed below.
System Requirements for Console
- Windows 2000 or better
- Administrative access to remote computer
- No firewall blocking communication between you and client
System Requirements for Client
- Windows NT 4 SP4 or better (minimum)
- Windows 2000 or better (suggested)
- No firewall blocking networking functions
- Remote Registry Service must be started
- Simple File Sharing must be turned off
How It's Done
Step 1 You can create a new script and edit existing scripts from the Tools > Scripting and Commands > Remote Script Manager menu. |
 |
| Step 2
In the Script Selection window, you can either edit an existing script or create a new one. For the sake of this tutorial, create a new script by clicking on the appropriate button.
|
 |
| Step 3
This is the main window where you enter your code and supply any files that you want copied over to the remote computer before the script executes. This sample script will install software remotely on a computer.
Your script can be written in either standard command batch scripting or Windows VBS. If you are new to either of these, this website will be a great resource.
More current versions have added the ability to execute KIX and Auto-it scripts remotely, also.

Authentication
To execute your scripts remotely, you will need to have the Windows access to do so. VNCScan takes care of that for you by allowing you to specify your administrator login and password in the console. Where you enter this depends upon on the scope that you want to place on a username/password. You can place it in:
- The main program preferences
- The Group Properties
- The Computer Properties
There is more information about authenticating remotely for scripts and other functions here.
