Runnig a Windows command from UNIX

Hi,
I need to execute a Windows command from UNIX crontab ( or similar utility). We are evaluating the schedular applications that will easily solve this issue although it will be a while by the time the tool selection happens and I need something to implement this solution in the iterim.

Thanks!
