Is there a slicker way to initiate a test remotely on a network than using scheduler or the "at" command with command line arguments?

Have you thought of a product like PC-Anywhere to control the PC from a remote station?

Maybe if you tell us a little bit moore about the circumstances we might have a better suggestion. How 'remote' is the other PC. Is it on the other side of the country or just in a EMI test chamber (for example) ?

I would think that there must also be a better 3rd product for starting applications on a remote machine. Pc-Anywhere would really be overkill and would add a lot of overhead on the system.

Maybe someone else has some sugestions?

Some other 3rd party software solutions have been suggested.

We haven't experimented with any of these, so we can really say which ones work and which don't .
