there's no need to call ipconfig 2 times. Do something to the find ( or rather use findstr) to make it search for those 2 patterns at the same time.

ghostmachine4, I'm new to using findstr. Could you present an example of the better way to do it?

Code: Select all

ipconfig .... |  findstr /I "IP Address IPv4"

No. This is matching lines that contain IP or Address or IPv4.
IPv4 is useless then, it contains IP ....


Use the /c switch.

Code: Select all

ipconfig /all | findstr /i /c:"IP Address" /c:"IPv4 Address"

I regret not using my favourite grep/gawk .

Code: Select all

ipconfig /all | grep -E "(IP|IPv4) Address"

and last thing what I would like to know:

via net start I get list of running services, from it I want choose exact one (example: net start |findstr "DHCP Client") and here is problem if the command is able to find this service than he should do echo "Everything is OK".
Any idea how to do it? thanks.

Code: Select all

net start | findstr /c:"DHCP Client">nul && echo.Everything is OK

[mischi]

thank you ChickenSoup it's working as I wanted, would it be a problem to make a condition that if it doesn't work (service is not there), an error will appear(echo service is not running)? In this case I suppose IF Conditionaly perform command is necessary to use, or am I wrong? thanks.

[ChickenSoup]

You could do an IF statement, but this is probably slicker:

Code: Select all

net start | findstr /c:"DHCP Client">nul && echo.Everything is OK || echo Service is not running

guys, again additional question for you:
I want to check via this script remote computers so the question is how I can process it?
I guess one way is to use PsExec from sysinternals but maybe is it possible do it via command for?

Something like

Code: Select all

for /F %%G in (computers.txt) do script.bat

Does it make sense to you or is it stupid
thanks.

[aGerman]

Of course, it's possible. FOR /F reads your file line by line and saves the content of the current line to %%G.
But if you want to call another batch for each line then you have to let it know the value in %%G. This could be done via Argument.

Code: Select all

for /f %%G in (computers.txt) do call script.bat %%G

In script.bat you have to work with %1 for getting the value.
