I came up with a solution. Whether or not it's the best one, I don't know,
but it works.
Steps:
1) Export list of computer names from a container or query in Active
Directory Users and Computers.
2) Run script
'copy and paste this into the command window and hit enter
'be sure to change the paths if necessary
cscript "<ScriptPath>\<ScriptName>.vbs" "<FilePath>" "<HostFileName>"
"<LogFileName>" 1
3) View Log
The script:

I am trying to find out what percentage of machines on my network have the
.NET runtime installed. What would be the best reccomendation for this
(other than SMS)?
Is using WSH & WMI an answer? Can anyone point me in te right direction?
