Executing a Batch job on a different server.

[BasicQ]

Hi,

From my Web application how can I run a batch file which is located on

a different server? What are the constraints I may encounter? Can
somebody please help me in solving this issue or guide me to any
article. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Take a look at remoting, you can create a component that calls another
component on another server. If you do decide to use remoting let me save you
some time, use an IIS hosted component simply because IIS already has an
authentication/encryption mechanism you will not have to reinvent that
wheel...
You can find out more here..
