Remote Application Execution via NFS?

[DJR]

Hello All-

Is there any way to kick off an application via an NFS shared file system and have it run on the ** remote ** server instead of on the local server that the NFS file system is share out to?

Thanks!

NFS is a file-sharing system. If you wish to
_run_ something on a different system, then
you need to use something else, like
remsh/rsh, ssh, Telnet, or the like.

I think you're looking for the on(1) command. Refer to the man pages for on(1) and rexd(1M).

Hope this helps,
