Hi Derrick,
I would consider using Net::SSH::Perl, or XML-RPC (RPC::XML). I've had to do
similar things, and have been happy with XML-RPC. You can have it run as a
server, however, with some trickery, you can also have it 'embedded' in another
server or script. I haven't personally used Net::SSH:

If one is in a Unix shop, this is very straightforward.
Telnet would not be practical, that is for interactive connections.
Something like the following could be called from the crawler. There are
some security issues for you to think through here.
!#/bin/perl
