Asunto: RE: [ActiveDir] OT (but only sorta) DST recap
As a matter of fact, I had seen that option in the list (I made a post to
the list a while ago about the "increased" size of the pstools, and the pain
of the EULA, and then saw the announcement of the second "MS" release that
had this "-accepteula" option)... But even tough now we can have the same
functionality back as we had previously, when you forget the switch it's
still a bit of a pain...
I don't mind the pop-up eula on the "GUI" tools, but in the CLI tools I
believe it should be the other way round: show no eula by default, and have
a switch that lets you see it, and perhaps a text on the output saying
something like "use tool.exe -showeula to see the EULA that governs the use
of the tool"... I guess sorf of what the GNU Utils usually do :)
Thanks for reminding me the option, though. I knew it was possible, but
didn't quite remember which it was ;)

Psexec -accepteula and the eula goes away.
