Probably the easiest way to do this is if the machine that will be
running the command is a web server. You can just set up the script you
want to run as a cgi and have the calling script call the cgi via http.
Now, this is assuming alot, like security is not an issue and your web
server has sufficient permissions to do whatever you want.
Of course, TMTOWTDI. You might want to take a look at Win32::Process to
see if it can solve your problems, or maybe there are some gurus reading
along that can help out with this one...
