How do I use a remote batch file in NT?

Hi, I've got Windows NT 4.0 running on a computer. There's another computer running Windows NT 4.0. Is there a way I can activate, from one computer, a batch file from the other computer so that the batch file execution will effect only the computer the batch file is sitting on? Will a command like 'net start' do it? How would I do it?

Use the AT command:
at \\computername time /interactive "command"
Get the full syntax by typing AT /? at a command prompt.

You can install telnetd on the NT system from the NT reskit. Then you can telnet to the system and run your batch file.

use rcmd. it's in the nt4 workstation resource kit. it allows you to remotely execute any *.exe *.bat from a command prompt on any machine. rcmd.exe \\machinename executable.bat
