UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

i want to run a script from window machine the script is


ksh
for i in $(cat some.txt)
do
rm $i
done
exit

i have it saved as a file say progremove & made it chmod 7777

how do i run this script from a window machine vie a batch file

telnet -l username servername

then what ?????


or can i run this progremove from within a ftp session ????

The simplest way sould be to put the script onto your UNIX server, telnet to it and run it, but if you are determined to run it from the DOS prompt then you could use rexec:

Code:

rexec UnixServerName -l UnixServerLogin ScriptName

rexec will prompt for a password before running the script.

You should be able to use rsh after setting up hosts.equiv and .rhosts - but I've never found it reliable and I don't like the security compromises.

cheers

i will surely try out this
thanks
