Hi all,

I'm trying to find a way of programmatically invoking the "install
updates and shutdown" functionality using .Net 1.1 or perhaps WMI or
other scripting. I can reboot a machine fine but if the install
updates and shutdown option is available I need to perform that task.
Any suggestions or ideas would be gratefully received

Thanks

Jeff

Jeff,

Posting to the correct group would be a start:

VB.NET:

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb

C#:

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.csharp

C++

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vc

Are those more correct groups than this? I'm not expecting there to
be a native .Net 1.1 solution but there might be. Thats an outside
chance though, better that I post it in a group that might have some
experience scripting WSUS as thats where I expect my solution will be.

Jeff,

You can invoke via code, but I am sure you can do the same via the registry too

The .NET Framework is a runtime for the different languages. So, to use the .NET
framework you should be a coder.

Furthermore, most users are now using .NET Framework 2 in those groups so you
will need to specify for example 'VB.NET 2003 on Framework 1.1'

If you aren't a coder then forget the framework & look on the Microsoft K Base
for a solution or even Google it.
