Automated uninstall of clients 2

[DavidLeeRoth]

I am trying to uninstall the sms client from the pc's on my network automatically. I have tried 20clicln.bat to no avail. It provides various error messages relating to being unable to find kill.exe etc. I understood that these files were copied to c:\temp and ran from there. I am using the 20clicln.bat by calling it at the end of the login script. However, when I run the 20clicln.bat locally it seems to work properly. Is there any way of doing this so I don't have to visit every pc on the network?

You should be able to remove the subnets for the PCs you're trying to uninstall. This will affect all PCs on the specified subnet that is removed from the site boundary. The PCs should uninstall the client software within 48 hours.

Hi,
did you tried to create a package and sent it to the PC's?

Kill.exe and Hammer.exe have to be on the PC (or in the same directory if on the network) as the 20clicln.bat file. These are available from the Windows NT Resource Kit. The 20clicln.bat process will take about 2-3 minutes to run but removes the client completely.
