Hi One possible solution is to wrap the functions in Script B [on windows] with SOAP and expose it has a service via apache. You can then access them from Script A has a SOAP client. Also SOAP supports some level of error handling in its protocol. " the SOAP message can be parsed like any other XML document. To determine whether an error occurs, the calling client can simply look for this fault element and read its contents to determine the exact error. "
There are other alternatives if you require more performance, however this soltion has the benefit of crossing DMZs|firewalls over HTTP/S which usually seats between unix and windows worlds. Perl has a nice SOAP implementation: SOAPLite http://cookbook.soaplite.com/ Hope this helps.
