NT Batch - Help with batch

I need to put a batch file in my flash drive so that when i start my flash drive up it will auto run cmd and type in ipconfig.
my motive is that I want to plug it into my computer and it automatically will go to the IP address.
Unless there is another program i can put in it

help appreciated

Writing the batch script for this isn't a problem - the problem is getting the file to autorun on any computer that you plug it into.

Windows does not allow removable storage aside from the CD drive to run automatically. Only fixed drives and CD media can have autorun properties in Windows. Therefore, in order for this to potentially work, you would need to modify every windows installation that you need this to function on - which not only creates extra work, but also defeats the purpose.
You would have to make sure that your particular media stick does not get marked as removable storage; create an autorun.inf file on the usb drive; and then have your .bat file to run from the inf file. Way too much work for such a simple command - especially considering you would have to modify each PC before hand.

I don't think you will find a solution to this.

You mention on your computer is this your own home PC or a work PC?

Do you want the ipconfig to display or change the IP settings?

Why every time you plug in the USB stick? from your brief explanation what you are asking to do does not make sense, so can you explain a little more.

Can you also let us know what OS you are running as all of this may have bearings on permissions and OS version specifics as well.

The feature you mentioned (autorun) has been disabled in the OS for security reasons.

There are however, ways around this but you will need to find that info for yourself. It would be considered "hacking" to force the OS to autorun the USB from the USB.

I had a similar project to gather ALL info about a PC and dump it to an inventory file. When you gather 2000+ pc's information, typing each time sucks.
