Powershell questions

[raig001]

Hi everybody:

I want to automate some tasks with Powershell for my users that are in different locations they are using Windows XP, I have two question:

1.- Can I distribute Powershell scripts on their machines, without installing Powershell 1.0 and .NET Framework 2.0, so that they can run their Powershell scripts without installing anything in their machines (like vbscript, that don't need to install anything to run the vbscript)?


2.- Can I compile a Powershell script into an exe file?

Thanks a lot for your answers.

The answer is no to both of your questions.

You can however design PowerShell scripts to run against remote machiens (using WMI) and execute them from your machine that has PowerShell loaded.

I hope you find this post helpful.

Regards,

Mark
