I create a string that looks something like this:

RUNRMTCMD  CMD('c:\sigxfr.cmd &transid') +
             RMTLOCNAME('192.168.2.107' *IP) +
             RMTUSER('rmtuser') RMTPWD('rmtpwd')

and then execute it from my RPGLE program with QCMDEXC. Works like a charm.
Of course, the IP address is dynamic 'in real life' since it's individual
clients systems that execute the sigxfr command.

am wondering if it is possible to execute that app (windows app) from
within
an rpg program..?



If so, would someone be kind enough to point me in the correct direction?
I
have searched google for remote execution as/400 and rpgle with no
success..
