Auto run script on USB device
Okay I want to write a script that I put on a jump drive. And when you plug the USB in this script executes. How would i go about doing this? I don't care what the program does right now. I just want to know how this would be done. Any ideas?

Will the computer your intending to run this from have a shell to execute your script? If not you will need to put a copy of the shell on the USB drive too. Use autorun.inf: Code:
[autorun] open=ksh -c myscript action=Invoke MyScript in ksh shell icon=myscript.ico label=My USB Application Note: This is a popular way for viruses to propagate themselves, so a lot of computers are now setup to not autorun USB devices. This may mean you user will still need to manually start the script so it's probably best to put a shortcut that does that for them (eg Setup.lnk or Install.lnk). |
