Hi, I'm going to assume you're using Windows, otherwise you'd use SSH... I'm also sure that this question gets asked all the time so perhaps it's time someone wrote a tutorial type example about this? You can also do this using PSExec which required no code(!) or WMI. Hope that's a start for you...	[reply]

One way of doing it would be to setup UUCP ... Or if it's a Windows box, get yourself a kit and exploit one of its many security holes to 0wn the box. ;-) Abigail	[reply]

If you can set it up with a telnetable ip, I'd use SecureCrt to telnet in or if you don't need security CRT which has a 30-day trial period. Of course you could just search google for ssh software. "Pain is weakness leaving the body, I find myself in pain everyday" -me	[reply]

I would like something that i could code in Perl. My perl version is kind of old. ( 5.005 ) So i would need something that could fit my old time Perl :-( I'm trying to make my company change their perl, so that i could program them better script !!	[reply]

You can script CRT and SecureCRT in perlscript, that why I recommended it, sorry for not pointing that out ahead of time "Pain is weakness leaving the body, I find myself in pain everyday" -me	[reply]
