msk_0984 didn't explicitly mention it, but DBD::WMI is one of these modules that won't work on Linux, unless you install Wine on Linux. But of course, there is a Unix version of WMI, and it's mentioned in the DBD::WMI documentation as well, WBEM (http://www.dmtf.org/standards/wbem/). I haven't used that though.

    msk_0984:

    On re-reading the OP, I see what you mean. I had originally interpreted it as him wanting to have programs on the Windows box that he could control from his Linux box. But after reading the post, I can't tell *where* I would've gotten that impression. Just a thinko on my side... Thanks for the catch (and the pointer to WBEM!)

      Hi All,

      Thanks for your replies on windows process management. We have worked on installed the DBD::WMI perl module. When we did perl Makefile.PL it asked for the dependent modules:

      Warning: prerequisite Win32::OLE 0 not found.

      When trying to install the dependent module (Win32::OLE)it is giving OS unsupported

      I have install Wine on my Cent OS box as suggested by roboticus. But it is still giving the same error message.

      Can any one help me on how to proceed further.

      Thanks in Advance.

      NOTE : My Team mate already replied with the same post but it was not getting listed in the replied postings. So, again in order to debug the problem I am posting it again.
