c:\>windows\command netstat -e >> test.txt but unable to make it work if any one could plz help i would be very thankful


thanks ,

create the batch file to the specifications you need. and then save it as..filename.bat
this will help you to run it as a batch file. if you save it as a txt file which is text file, it wont run
any problems let us know

hi im sorry i dont think i made it clear eng. on what i am trying to do so let me try again.


ok i want to make a batch file that when ran it would open up command screen "cmd screen" and then auto give command netstat - e and then save the output to whatevername.txt i hope this help a lil sorry

@echo off
netstat -[options] >> whateverfile.txt

yes whatever fallenzero said, put that in the autoexec file. that will make the commands be executed on startup of the system

and if your system runs xp, here are the instructions
