Perl Remote Commands

anshumangoyal has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Is there any Module which allows me to Execute a command remotely and get it's response. I don't wan to use SSH (as the remote machine is a Windows Machine) and I cannot use Telnet because it is not enabled/installed on the remote machine. So, without modifying too much the remote machine, how can I run a command and get it's response on a remote machine?

What you are asking for really has little or nothing to do with Perl. However, the best solution is PsExec.exe With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday' Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error. "Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority". In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice. The start of some sanity?	[reply]

Depending on how your environment is set up, you can create processes on remote machines using WMI. Consult with your network / Windows administrator for the proper approach. Short of finding out what mechanisms are available on Windows, we can't help you. This is not as much a Perl question but a question about your computing environment, and you are much closer to the people who know about that than we are.	[reply]
