So have you been able to execute the script remotely yet? You can do it via the system() call. Try something like this:
Code:
system("ssh -t user@remote sh /<remote>home/user/<file_name>.sh");
system("scp user@remote:/path/to/remote_file /path/to/local_file");

If you are being allowed to use system(), then that's all that is there to it. If not, you will have to fork and exec.
