Hello,

I'm busy working on a "small" sms application.
I'm able to access all remote pc's (for which I am Local Admin) information
using WMI and API calls for some things. But I can't figure out how to do a
capture (screenshot) of the remote computers screen using vb.net.

I'm also looking for a way to remotely install a service.
Any ideas?

regards

Geert

Is it possible to run a little application on the client PC?

I've also thought about this solution.
I can copy the program, that's no problem.
How can I start it remotely (without scheduling a job)
How do I send the output back to the server (without reading the screenshot
file on the client)
I was more thinking about an API that could do this.
There are programs capable op doing this (but ofcourse not with source :))
 
I'm not sure that the dotnet framework is installed on the server, so it
can't be a dotnet application

That's a problem. Each machine running a .NET application requires the .NET
Framework to be installed.

If I do it with an API call of a MWI call or something, then the client
doesn't need the framework.
