Hello Roark, If the command does not change over time, an option could be to encapsulate the command and the output behind an XML-RPC interface. I used it several times now and for me this works perfectly. XML-RPC is part of the Python standard library, so it should work out of the box on windows and linux. It also supports mixed programming languages (maybe C# on windows to get the info you want and python on linux on the client).
