in thread How to execute windows dos command using perl and how to login to another windows machine and execute dos command in that

Hi BrowserUk,

already we are using some external tools.

our need is to perform operation without using any external tools.

so it would be better if you tell any other way in perl, or some perl modules, etc...

thank you...

    I'm not sure what your definition is of "external tools". Psexec is part of the Sysinternals suite of tools that is now owned by Microsoft. These tools are simply an executable that you download (for free) and use on your Windows system. My personal view is to consider the Sysinternals tools as "native" tools that just are not shipped with the OS.

    For your desired task of using one Windows system to remotely run a command on another Windows system, I personally agree with BrowserUk that psexec will be the easiest method available.
