Overview:
RemoteCommand is an example program which uses remote-object technology to perform remote command execution on another host.

RemoteCommand accomplishes this by launching a command server (RemoteRunServer) on the specified host, then connecting to it via a remote object connection.  When command execution requests are made by RemoteCommand, the command is sent to the command server for execution, and the output is sent back to RemoteCommand.  This would be similar to executing the command directly with "rsh host command" (using 'system', or 'popen'), except that much greater flexibility is provided to allow for better monitoring and interaction with the command execution server.

See the file README.rtf in the source directory for more information.
