Hi arunmep,
The answer will depend on how you connect to the remote machine manually.
Do you telnet to it? Then try Net::Telnet.
Do you have to ssh to it? Perhaps Net::SSH is what you need.
If it's some more complicated method, you may want to look into using Expect.

Hi,
I'm not sure I exactly understand what you're asking. The question seems to point to running a perl program on a remote machine, i.e. execute it remotely? but in your question you seem to indicate that this will run locally and connect to a remote machine.
As already said, the lack of OS information makes this a little difficult, but assuming it's Win32 you may want to use WMI. If that's the case, take a look at Re: how to identify the windows drives.
Otherwise, try a SuperSearch for WMI.

Update:
Also see the original question in the thread mentioned: how to identify the windows drives | [reply] |

It is almost certainly possible. But we can't give you any really useful advice without knowing what operating systems are running on the two machines and how they are networked together.

using strict; I don't think this is a question related to perl at all but anyway..
http://www.roth.net has a good collection of perl scripts and tutorials to leverage WMI to gather information from local or remote machines.
Logical Disk information such as drive letters and mount points is found under the LOGICALDISK WMI class/alias. Like in this shell command..
c:\> WMIC.exe LogicalDisk
Figuring out how to use perl to access WMI remotely should be your task, it's not too hard there's plenty of code that already does it, all that needs doing is tweaking it to do just exactly what you need.
P.S: Also, have a look at the WMI Code Creator and Scriptomatic tools from M$, they have some perl code generators that possibly do just what you need. | [reply]
