Help with script to do net time and validate time and output file

All,

I am using a for /f %i in (listservers.txt) do net time \\%1 and it does the
net time for all the servers in that text file. I am trying to pipe findstr
and search for 1 the first digital in the time column and output it to a
file. This output file lists servers that have the time change due to DST.

I need help on how I would use findstr on the same line or subroutine to
search for the first digital in the time.

I tried doing this

for /f %i in (listservers.txt) do net time \\%1 |findstr "1:" >output.txt

but it did not work.

I am thinking someone might have a different idea.

Thanks,

Steve

Steve,

This seems to work for me once I changed the redirect >output.txt to
>>output.txt.

Let us know exactly what you are seeing if this doesn't help.
