I'm working on creating a single command that will run mulitple things on the command line of another machine. Here is what I'm looking to do.
I can run the below command from Run to complete what I need accomplished but can't seem to get the format correct for psexec to understand it.
cmd /K cd /d D:\directory & ant & exit
I've tried appling this to the psexec example below:
psexec \\machine cmd /K cd /d D:\directory & ant & exit
When executing this it will activate the command line and travel to D:\directory but won't execute the remaining commands. Adding "" just creates more issues.
Can anyone guide me to the correct format? Or something other than psexec I can use to complete this (free options only)?
Figured it out finally after some more internet searching and trial and error. psexec needs /c to run multiple commands, but that syntax doesn't work with the setup I wrote above. I've gotten the below command to run what I need.
psexec \\machine cmd /c (^d:^ ^& cd directory^ ^& ant^)
I don't need to exit because psexec will exit itself upon completion. You can also use && to require success to continue on to the next command. Found this forum helpful

And this for running psexec commands
