Unzip folder on remote machine

Hi !

I am trying to automate FTP transfer of some folders from one unix machine (a) to another one (b).
I run my shell script on machine a.
The problem I face is how to unzip the folder at the machine b with script run in machine a.

My first question: Is there any way to do this ?

My second question: Is this a good approch to automate FTP transfer of folders to run the shell script on machine a ? What if I try to write a script that can be run on machne b? Which approach is the most used and optimal one?
Since the folders in machine a are under CM (clearcase), it will be some complication to get around Config Spec when I run the script from machine b.

Rgds
