Make sure that the default admin$ share is enabled on

We deployed an .exe to about 25 machines and we pushed it with psexec.exe. On all the machines we kept getting this error.

Couldn't access YourPCName:
The network path was not found.

Make sure that the default admin$ share is enabled on YourPCName.


We know each machine does have the Admin$ share
We pushed this .exe using an Admin Account
We've had psexec work on other machines, just not this group

What causes this error and how do you fix it?

Hi,

An option to check on the fault workstation : Turn off "network users identify as guests" like it is explaining here : http://davidchuprogramming.blogspot.com/2009/12/psexecexe-access-denied.html

Hope it can help.

Regards,

Mike

  • Estava com o mesmo problema..
    consegui resolver alterando o hostname pelo IP

    psexec \\10.248.50.30 - u "DOMÃNIO"\"LOGIN" -p "SENHA" "ARQUIVO".exe ou
    psexec @maquinas.txt - u "DOMÃNIO"\"LOGIN" -p "SENHA" "ARQUIVO".exe

    no arquivo txt utilize o ip da maquina que deseja ao invés do host.

    Boa sorte! - jcdayrell 10 years ago

Yes, the workstation service is running and I am using an Admin account. I've even tried using the local system account and I get the same result.

AV, Firewalls and other such software can cause problems like this.
Do you have a bare bones image you can try it on?

It must be a firewall. I am running this on remote machines of course and I used a .txt file. So I ran the following.

psexec @Machines.txt -c -d -s package.exe

and I've tried this:

psexec @Machines.txt -c -d -u Domain\AdminUser -p password package.exe

the machines.txt has 25 computer names and package.exe WILL install on 6 of them. The other 19 give me the Admin$ error.
