Remotely change Gateway

Is it possible to change the gateway of a client PC, part of a workgroup,
remotely from another PC that belongs to the same workgroup??

Hello Gemat - PCSC computer shop Gemat - PCSC computer,

Which OS did you use? With XP and higher use Remote Desktop and for 2000
and lower you can use VNC ( http://www.realvnc.com/ ) to connect to the desktop.

Best regards

Hi Gemat,

Yes. I wrote a VBScript for you. Need admin rights on the remote PC and
Windows XP firewall may block the RPC calls - so turn that off if its not
working (on remote machine that is).

Read in a list of remote PC's into this script and loop through them to do
more than one.
Enjoy!

strComputer = "remotehost.yourdomain.com"

Set colNetAdapters = objWMIService.ExecQuery _

strGateway = Array("10.0.10.42")

For Each objNetAdapter in colNetAdapters
errEnable = objNetAdapter.EnableStatic(strIPAddress, strSubnetMask)
errGateways = objNetAdapter.SetGateways(strGateway, strGatewaymetric)
If errGateways = 0 Then
WScript.Echo "The gateway settings are updated."
Else
WScript.Echo "Some kind of error - settings could not be changed."
End If
