Re: "RUNRMTCMD" on NT Server

I say again. Use FTP from the 400 to start a batch 
file on the NT box.
Test this out interactively.  Do the following.
I)  From your 400 do the following from a command line
        A)  ping nameofpc
                1)  If it works go to B)
                2)  If it doesn't work
                        a)  If command not found, load TCP/IP on 
                                400, configure and everything.
                        b)  If location not found then verify DNS 
                                and PC name
        B)  ftp nameofpc
                1)  If it works go to C)
                2)  If it doesn't work
                        a)  Load ftp server on NT that comes free 
                                with NT
        C)  quote rcmd drive:\directory\batchfilename.bat
II)  Once you get this tested out interactively, do it in a 
program.  Contact again for further details.  
But, really this isn't an RPG issue, and you're kinda on the wrong list.

Rob,

The rcmd subcommand will run a CLP on the AS400 from the NT
Server, I would like to do this the other way round - run a batch file
(.BAT) on the NT Server from the AS400. One of the reasons why
I would like to initiate the process from the AS400 is that we have
scheduled as well as interactive jobs on the AS400 from which we
would like to transfer data to the NT Server and at the same time
run the Server update via batch (.BAT) file initiated from the AS400.
This means that the transfer and update will not take place if the
job on the AS400 aborts abnormally.

Thanks for your help so far and please let me know if you need
any more information.
