 The same syntax can be used to execute a local script file with more complex statements on a remote node over http, for example:
 
 ```shell
-geth attach http://geth.example.org:8545 --exec 'loadScript("/tmp/checkbalances.js")'
+geth attach --exec 'loadScript("/tmp/checkbalances.js")' http://geth.example.org:8545

+geth attach --jspath "/tmp" --exec 'loadScript("checkbalances.js")' http://geth.example.org:8545
 ```
 
 The `--jspath` flag is used to set a library directory for the Javascript scripts. Any parameters passed to `loadScript()`

+geth attach --exec admin.nodeInfo.enr data/geth.ipc

 With the member node running, it is possible to check that it is connected to the bootstrap node or any other node in the network by attaching a console and running `admin.peers`. It may take up to a few seconds for the nodes to get connected.
 
 ```shell
-geth attach data2/geth.ipc --exec admin.peers
+geth attach --exec admin.peers data2/geth.ipc
