running commands on a remote computer

[Christos Kritikos]

hello

Is there a way I can execute a script on a remote
computer? I am trying to "push" a new version of a
website from a test server to a webserver. This includes
copying the files, registering the COM objects and
restarting IIS. Is there a way I can perform all these
things from the test server? Or do I have to remote-login
to the webserver?

thanks
christos

Hi Christos

PsExec from Sysinternals can execute a command on a remote system, works
without deploying a client to the remote system.

Visit <http://www.sysinternals.com>, look for PsTools
<http://www.sysinternals.com/ntw2k/freeware/pstools.shtml>, in
particular PsExec

Hi

To run something remotely, take a look at PsExec.exe in
the free PsTools suite, found at
http://www.sysinternals.com

PsExec can even automatically copy a file (e.g. exe or bat) over
to the remote computer before it starts it.

Another freeware program with similar merits to PsExec is Beyondexec.
