If network security is at all a concern, I would recommend SSH. Any remote command infrastructure will require, well, infrastructure. Be it rlogin, ssh, telnet or some combination. And of course, there is Uri's Stem.
SSH works well as a secure transport for the rsync file synchronization service as well.

Hello,
This is my 1st post here, so excuse if this is a silly question. I'm going to work on a script that will execute commands on a remote system, and I'm curious as to what the better mechanism is, Perl's expect or Telnet module ? Are there any pros or cons to each ? I'm not doing anything that complicated and I'm not worried about security (isolated LAN).
Any thoughts ??
Any help is much appreciated. _______________________________________________ Boston-pm mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.pm.org/mailman/listinfo/boston-pm
