Syntax
WINMSD [\computername] options

Options:
/a All details
/s Summary details only
/f Send output to a file in the current directory
/p Send output to a printer

WINMSD with no switches will open the GUI with details of the computer you are logged into.

When a remote computername is specified then less info will be reported
e.g. Diskspace and Memory won&qt;&qt;t be listedHot keys within the GUI:

SHIFT – F2 copies the current tab to the clipboard,
F2 copies a summary of the current tab to the clipboard

Winmsd in Windows 2000 will actually run Msinfo32 –
mmc.exe /s "C:Program FilesCommon FilesMicrosoft SharedMSInfoMSInfo32.msc"

It is advisable to have the SERVER service running, if not – winmsd will show a warning dialogue.

Spooling output to file – if you have the resource kit WINMSDP allows more control over this.
