Question:
I am in need of a script or powershell command that will be able to determine the session id of a specific logged in user on remote machine, to be later used as parameter to the psexec -i execution of remote gui process on that session of that user on the remote machine.
So far i managed to use
|
1 2 |
psexec \\remoteMachine -u user -p pswrd query session |
to get list of sessions on the remote machine:
|
1 2 3 4 5 |
SESSIONNAME USERNAME ID STATE TYPE DEVICE console 0 Conn wdcon rdp-tcp#919 user 1 Active rdpwd rdp-tcp#916 user 3 Active rdpwd |
so i guess i could somehow isolate the needed id and use it – but haven’t managed to do that yet
Any ideas?
Maybe other – simpler ways?
Thanks for the help.
Answer:
With the PSTerinalServices powershell module you can get the user sessions and IDs.
