in reply to Remote admin script for Win32 ?

Hi,
not so much a pure perl tool, but I have successfully used Windoze's netsh to query a bunch of M$ DHCP servers remotely. Netsh also serves a lot of other purposes in the windows world. Just type netsh help in a Windows console window and make your way through the documentation. It's more powerfull as it looks like at first sight
I use perl scripts with system('netsh...') calls.
Is that what you are after?

    hi,

    netsh isn't really enough for what i would like to be able to do. However, maybe i could use IO::Socket and IPC::Open2 perhaps and run commands remotely. There does seem to be a lot of Win32 modules availible.
    One great thing about programming perl on windows is that i can sometimes forget i'm using windows !

    thanks anyway,

    Isaac.
