You will have to build the logic into your perl program which listens on the other side. It may get a string from the client and execute it, and return the results back.
But looking at the way you asked the question, I would recommend you read some more on sockets, fork(), pipe etc before you start coding for this. NOTE: If your remote system is Unix, you are better off using rsh or ssh to do this. Writing such a system yourself might create some serious security holes. If you can use rsh or ssh, you should create custom tags to mean custom actions on the remote side and interpret the commands yourself. Allowing a client run arbitrary scripts is like pointing a loaded gun back at your face. -- Hari Bhaskaran > -----Original Message----- > From: Veeraraju_Mareddi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, April 30, 2002 9:36 AM > To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' > Subject: Execute a command on a Socket > > > Dear Admins, > > Can anybody of you can tell how to execute a command/some > Script on a remote > system through PERL SOCKET. > > After creating a Socket ,How do i execute commands on a > system,I am not > clear. > > Your help is highly appreciated. > > With Regards > Rajuveera > ************************************************************** > ************ > This email (including any attachments) is intended for the > sole use of the > intended recipient/s and may contain material that is CONFIDENTIAL AND > PRIVATE COMPANY INFORMATION.
