remsh to win2k3

[James Odak]

I am wonding if anyone can help me with this.
I would like to be able to remsh a command to a Win2k3 server to simply execute a bat file

obviously i could just do
remsh server "/fs/fs/command"
if it was a UNIX server

Is there a way to do the same from a Unix server/script to a Win2K3 server?


Thanks

Try 'rexec' command instead. The command syntax and execution is almost the same in both OS. Check:

# man rexec

and "Help" on rexec in Windows system

Does Win2000 support RPC?

Stephen: Yes, there are network named pipes available to programmers that know how to use such a thing :)

One approach is to install Microsoft Services for UNIX (SFU). You can download it from

You could then truly remsh and moreover you could remsh a shell script on the Windows box that way (or a batch file). I find that if I have to write scripts which will run on Windows that Perl is the least evil choice.
