How to run UNIX alias from plink?

Hi,
I am new to unix and plink in general. I want to run plink.exe on windows to execute alias command on unix. Is it possible? I can run simple unix commands from plink for ex:
Code:
plink.exe -pw mypass myusername@hostip touch filename

It successfully creates the "filename" file on the hostip host.
But if I create an alias for it:
Code:
myusername>alias createfile='touch mm'

and I run from plink:
Code:
plink.exe -pw mypass myusername@hostip createfile

it returns: ksh: createfile: not found
I tried also:
Code:
plink.exe -pw mypass myusername@hostip -s createfile

result was: FATAL ERROR: Server refused to start a shell/command

So how can I run alias commands within plink?

Thanks,
Ivanhou

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
