Unix and W2k interaction question

Is there a way for a HPUX server to shut down a Windows 2000 service (Peoplesoft app service) automatically when shutdown is initiated? Could some type of script be executed and if that is possible, where and how could that script be placed on the HPUX server? thanks.

Plan A. Get the MKS Toolkit for your Windows box. http://www.mkssoftware.com/
You can them remsh from your UNIX box to the Windows box to your heart's content.

Plan B. Write a sockets based Perl client/server pair. The server (on the Windows box) would listen for requests on a dedicated port and respond to them.

If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

Hi,
Some GPL software exists on WINNT/2K to run a rshd as a service.
example :
http://www.csa.ru/~il/rsh/
You just have to make the proper command to make it works !
If you want more security, sshd is also available !

hope that help.
