Thank you for all the responses.
I am inclined to use psexec route. I will document as I go along
Step 1: Gather hostnames
Command line: (Actually typed into a single line, I have indented it here
for clarity:
FOR /l %a IN (1,1,255) DO \
FOR /l %b IN (1,1,255) DO \
FOR /l %c in (1,1,255) DO \
@PING -n 1 -w 10 -a 192.%a.%b.%c | FIND "Pinging"
>>/tmp/192.%a.%b.%c.x.txt
-a gets the host names
-w 10 caters to my impatience by speeding things up a bit
This creates files with the subnet names and the hostnames.
Then use your favourite editor to strip out
Pinging \d+.\d+.\d+.\d+.*$
Pinging
\[\d+.\d+.\d+.\d+.*$
.domain.com
You are left with nice files of host names to work with to create keys and
deploy using psexec
I am now looking for a clean way of generating agent keys. I am going to use
subnet IP addresses as they are DHCP ranges.
More shell scripting?
