Networking Traceroute

Post by spiper »

I am a tech for a large computer company and we do alot of end user networking support the issue i have is an easier way to have the end user run a traceroute other then a dos window. I know i could make a batch file to email me the results but on our networks it does not allow an exe or .bat file to be sent. Is there an easier way to have them run a traceroute that emails the results other then having them do it manually? These are both top 50 fortune 500 companies so securities are really tight.

P.S. I did not see a networking forum so i hope General is ok.


Thanks

If you have a corporate intranet that user's access with IE you could use a VB/ActiveX solution to get them to run a trace from their browser, eg http://www.paulsadowski.com/WSH/Trace.hta.htm ... Or use a Java applet. Or rollout a simple program to everyone's desktop.

Wow this is just what i was looking for now i just need this file to email me results. I also am looking for a system that is small and shows what certificates are installed in the capi store. So far Keytool is the only thing i can find and it is 5 megs. Would be great to have all of these in one file that emails me the results. I do alot of server management and encryption for 100,000 employees so these small tools really help me alot.
