The folks in Cult of the Dead Cow this week released a new tool. Will this take down the internet? No, quite the contrary. It’s meant to make sysadmins a little happier. From the same folks that brought you Back Orifice we now have the “batch-0-matic”. What is exactly? Well…
batch-0-matic (b0m) is a utility which allows users to input a list of variables into a batch file, giving users the ability to run the same batch file multiple times, replacing a variable each time. b0m is an invaluable tool for network administrators and is far more useful than it may at first glance, especially when used in conjunction with other command line utilities. For example b0m could add hundreds of users into a network group, stop a service across hundreds of servers in seconds, or run executables on multiple machines simultaneously, all with just a few clicks. The program is only limited by what users can perform from a simple Windows CLI.
