The old WINS servers are still up and running. I was actually using the WINS script as more of an example of the concept I'm trying to explore.

Exchange 5.5 SP4 NT 4.0 SP6 SRP Outlook 2000 I'm in the process of changing WINS addresses on remote machines via a script. I know I'm not going to get everyone in the domain the first, second, or tenth time I run this script, however, and am looking for ways to streamline the process. Has anyone here ever created a mailbox that a user could send to that would execute a script? For example, I'm sitting at my machine 'NTPC1' and didn't get the WINS change. I can't change it myself, as I'm not admin on the local box. However, all I need to do is send a blank e-mail with 'WINSCHANGE NTPC1' in the subject and the script will be executed on my machine. Anyone?
