Two tools that allow you to do this are:

For an example of driving WMI from Perl via Win32::OLE, see WMI_Run.pl by Dave Roth (launches a process on a local or remote machine).

    Hi, THX for advice

    I did't try use WMI_run.pl, unfortunately I am not in the office right now. But I will try to use it.

    I have read on MSDN http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/wmisdk/wmi/create_method_in_class_win32_process.asp that For security reasons the Win32_Process.Create method cannot be used to start an interactive process remotely. Windows 2000 Professional SP2 and earlier, Windows NT, and Windows 98/95: Win32_Process.Create can create an interactive process remotely.

    I will be trying to start interactive process on Win XP SP2 and thats why I am worry about it.

    It seems that I have to wait to monday to check it ;(
