Back this sounds like the continue option has been turned off for some reason. Try using a -continue option on the xsibatch command line. Although I'm not sure why this is happening, it should be off by default It certainly never does it for me, that I remember.

Hi
I need to reset the xsi workgroup on our w2k render farm machines quickly. I'm using xsi -w <workgroup dir>
But unfortunately I must manually hit the 'Enter Key' before workgroups is properly set on the machine.
Why must I hit the 'Enter Key'? I want to script this operation so I don't have to login into every machine to hit ENTER.
I've had a look but there seems to be no switch to turn this off.
I've tried doing xsibatch -w <work group dir> to avoid the 'Enter Key'. But this does not set workgroups even though it says it has. A bug?
Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?
Cheers
Harvey
