Thanks a lot for the help Glen, One more question, I am using flex builder 3 and flex SDK 3.2.0, But I am not able to find the nativeprocess API in this configuration. I tried overlaying adobe air 2.0 on flex SDK 3.2.0 as mentioned in some forums but still it does not work. Do I need flash builder 4 to make the nativeprocess API work.

If you download Air Launchpad and get it to generate the source code example for the Native Process API, you can then hack it to try your code, see my example below which starts an SSH session using putty on Windows - did not try on Mac as I don't have one, but should also be able to make it work on Linux.
