Use Ninite on Remote Machines

To run Ninite on a remote machine, click 'Show remote options' in the lower-left corner of the Ninite Pro app selection window.

The network scanning can be a bit quirky and may not find all your machines. In that case you should create a file containing a list of remote machines (by name or IP, one per line) and start Ninite like:

NiniteOne.exe /remote file:machines.txt

Note that this option can also be combined with other switches like /silent:

NiniteOne.exe /remote file:machines.txt /updateonly /silent report.csv

If Ninite is still having trouble connecting to your machines, we have more details on connection requirements. Running the enable_remote.vbs script from that page on the remote machines may fix things.

You can also list machines right on the command line, for example

NiniteOne.exe /remote workstation1 workstation2 /select Flash Java /silent report.csv

You can specify different user credentials with the /remoteauth switch:

NiniteOne.exe /remote 192.168.250.147 /remoteauth admin password /audit /silent report.txt
