    I've got about 200+ publishing points across two servers. I'd like to be able to make changes to all of them in a programmatic / automated way. For example, I need to change settings for the archiving plugin and I've already done it manually for them all once, but don't want to do it again. Is there a way that I can interact with WMS through a command line? Or would I be looking at having to dive into the WMS SDK?

    So far, my search has turned up nothing (except the SDK).

    In the Windows SDK there are javascript samples that allow you to interact with WMS.  These are still using the SDK, but through javascript.  When you install the Windows SDK they're in the \Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.1\Samples\Multimedia\WindowsMediaServices9\JScript folder.
