Hi guys
I have been playing around with an industrial Linux-powered scanner, and was
making okay progress under XP.
This was made easier as I just ran some of the bash scripts through
win-bash.
Since moving to Windows 7 of course this no longer works, even if I disable
UAC completely - just echos on screen with no errors....
I can only guess that the reason is that win-bash no longer works with
Windows 7?
My question is will powershell fill the gap?
i.e. if this is my win-bash script what would the powershell equivalent look
like, or am I barking up the wrong tree?
echo !TC | C:/win-bash/nc 192.172.1.6 80 > ScanFile.dta
p.s. nc = netcat and I know I need an alternative sooner rather than later
Very many thanks in advance
Joe.
