csccmd install or copy?

[Patricia D]

On my PC, I have successfully installed the Windows 2003 Resource Kit Tools
and used csccmd /disconnect:\\<server>\<share> to disconnect my offline
files (and all other network connections). This allows me to work on the
offline copies of all files, while still retainnig my live network connection
for email updates.
(Very useful for working out of the office on slow connections.)
When offline files are disconnected, the Synchronisation Manager icon
appears in the Windows System Tray, so it is easy to reconnect and
synchrinise the files,
if/when required.

PROBLEM: I'd like to use this utility on other PCs in our company, but I
don't want to install the complete Windows resource tools kit on other PCs.
If I simply copy the csccmd.exe file to another PC and run it in a cmd
window, the response is that it ran successfully, but no synch mgr icon
appears and all my network files are still available, so I have obviously NOT
disconnected the client side caching.
(I've tried copying the file to the C:\ directory, C:\Windows,
C:\Windows\Drivers, and C:\Windows\System32 folders - all with same result).

question: How can I install (only) csccmd.exe to a PC?

I've spent hours on this, so I'd really appreciate helpful suggestions....

You should be able to just copy it and run the command, there is no
need to install.

In fact you don't even have to copy it, we run the tool from a network
share via vbscript without even having a copy locally, this works
great, you could modify this script. There is no reason however why it
wouldn't work locally, if you can open a command prompt and run it
without error (e.g. view the help) - it should run fine.
