PSEXEC from www.SystemInternals.com PSTools (Freeware) will allow you to do on the fly remote executes. You can also use the WMI and OLE, but the remote machine has to have WBEM installed. If you are using a PERL script to only play the sound, you can better accomplish this by remote executing a shell command like "PSEXEC \\Target -D MPLAY32 /PLAY \\Server\Share\MySound.wav". This way you would not have any dependencies other then being a member of the local Admins group.
James Krummel -----Original Message----- Subject: Remotely run perl To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 16 Oct 2002 07:33:59 -0400 Does anyone know how I can remotely run a perl script without using a web server? I have an application that needs to send out alerts to a few systems. I have a perl script that will execute the wav file. It works like a charm through IIS but I don't want to install IIS on all the systems. Any help would be appreciated.
