Re^3: open windows application from linux server

If you can't write "I" or "you", how can you program complex tasks? This isn't youtube. You need to come across with a better "dress code" to be taken seriously.

No, "u" cannot exeucte psexec from linux. But "u" can use it in the sense of using the remote end of it, but you have to make a linux version of the server side that communicates with it. If the source is included with that one, you can emulate its basic functionality easily enough.

Then again, if it's using an IPC mechanism that's not based on IP-sockets, it might be more difficult. In that case a network sniffer watching the PC do it would offer clues. Then mimic the packets. I'm pretty sure Windows tunnels the legacy protocols over TCP/IP now, anyway.

FWIW, if you can install wine, you might be able to run psexec.exe from linux	[reply]

That's a good point. I imagine there is a way to launch EXE programs into a wine session.	[reply]
