How to use WMIC to connect to remote machine and output netstat to a file?

Question

I'm trying to issue the following command remotely:

netstat -ano > C:\output.txt

but cannot figure out how to do that with WMIC! Any idea?

I've got:

process call create netstat.exe 

working but I cannot figure out how to pass the -ANO nor the output. Help please :)

Solution

When issuing remote commands, quote the entire string to execute, like:

wmic /node:remote_computer process call create "netstat.exe -ano > C:\output.txt"

You probably need to add a /output:stdout because it does not do this by default if you want the file on the remote computer (that is ambiguous in your question), or it will be a useless output file. It took me a long time with wmic to figure that out.

To add to the question, id like the output to be redirected to the remote machine (the issuer). Thanks!

This answer is not very useful without an explanation of what it is doing.

Please a least give one example in your answer as text instead of just an URL.
