Maybe a way to cheat the rules

Are you familiar with PC Windows?
Read up on scheduling tasks (accessories, system tools, scheduled tasks)
[note, some versions of windows might be a bit different to get there]

Create a scheduled task to run some 1.bat file
In normal operation, this 1.bat file will do no work

Now, on unix, create a text file of your 1.bat file to run on Windows
ftp it to your PC
Now, at the next scheduled execution, it will run.

Some things to think about:
may want to create a 2.bat
have the last line of 1.bat call 2.bat
but, the 2.bat file deletes the 1.bat file you just moved and ran once
AND, makes the 1.bat into its do-nothing original format
