VB.Net application to execute commands on remtoe machine.
Experts, I want to know how to code a VB.Net application (With GUI) that will allow executation of commands we frequently use (Pre-defined) on remote machine.
The app will have username / password fields, command field, and probably a drop down list or similar that lists commands (pre-defined in source code) to be executed on remote machine's IP address / name entered in the Destination field.
The problem is, I am not aware of a way to do this except using PSEXEC.exe (Part of PsTools), but I don't want to supply PSEXEC.exe separately. What are ways around this? Are there other tools that will alllow me to do this?
There are tools avaialble, but I still want to code my own application (Or at least know the source code) to do this.
