WinRS can be used when installing software on remote systems. If you want to quietly install an application using an MSI file onto a remote machine, use the following syntax. This syntax assumes the MSI file has already been deposited into the C:\ folder.
winrs -r:machinename msiexec.exe /i c:\install.msi /quiet
When specifying the remote machine, the following are valid:
- ยท Localhost
- NetBIOS name
- Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
- IP address
