Remote Execution

[moremonks]

Not entirely C++ related, but I feel that the answer (if any) is probably going to be more related to C++ than anything else. Does anyone have any idea how to execute a file, or simply run any command on a remote machine? It seems very simple, but I simply cannot figure out how to do this. Also, the environment is one in which I have admin privileges on all machines, so permissions shouldn't be a problem. Thanks in advance.

what type of operating systems are we talking here? i know if you have a web server running on the remote machine, it would be very easy to use php or perl/cgi to execute a file through a web browser.

ssh user@host "/usr/local/bin/mycommand -asdf"

Sorry for the delay. Forgot I posted this. I'm talking about lots of win2k pro machines, and I've found a solution. A neat little VBScript thing that goes like this:

Set objLocator = CreateObject("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")

Set objService = objLocator.ConnectServer ("nd001676", "root\\cimv2", username, password)
ObjService.Security_.impersonationlevel = 3

Set objInstance = objService.Get("Win32_Process")

status = objInstance.Create("c:\\depends.exe", null, null, intProcessId)



Thanks for the help though.username
