Java to HP

[Yossi Shalit]

We would like to develop Java tools (from NT4) that will run scripts in HP-UX 11 machines. How can we connect from JAVA NT to HP ? should we install something in HP to handle this kind of connection ?

Yossi Shalit:

Just a thought.

If you are writing tcp/ip based application that can communicate with HP-UX using rpc, you just need "rpcbind" process to be running on HP-UX.

The most natural way to execute commands on a remote system from java is to use java on both sides of the connection. You could create your own protocol using sockets, or you could use a prebuilt framework like java Remote Method Invocation or e-speak-

Those will help out with tasks like security and system discovery.
