Executing Win2000 commands from a shell script

Duncan Edmonstone — Thu, 24 Jun 2021 14:02:36 GMT

Hi all,

I have a requirement to run a Windows 2000 command (specifically IISRESTART) from a shell script on a HPUX11 server. I was assuming (probably incorrectly) that I should be able to do this using something like remsh, but it doesn't look like W2000 provides anything like a remshd daemon.

Windows 2000 does have something called the "Remote Command Service", but as far as I can tell, it only works from other NT systems, and relies on NTLM authentication.

I'm sure there are some products out there that will do this, but I'm hoping this can be acheived without a cost.

Thanks,

Duncan

Look at SSH, there is a windows version - server I believe.

Plus, its a secured connection.

Volker, I like that, and it's cheap! Better than messing around with SSH!

Hi,

there are some products which give you remsh, telnet, remotelogin daemons. I think the most complete product is UWIN 2.9. Have a look at http://www.research.att.com/sw/tools/uwin/ . Its not free for commercial use, but you can download and testdrive it with no limitations.

There are also other products like Cygwin (http://sourceware.cygnus.com/cygwin/) or Interix and NutCracker. You will find the links at the bottom of the UWIN page.

Hope this helps

Regards Stefan
