Sure...we do it all the time. Put an rexec daemon on the server...the
one from Denicomp is quite nice. Then issue a RUNRMTCMD command from
your System i...or use the rexec() API. Contact me if you want more
info.

Hello. Is it possible to trigger a scheduled task on one of the servers on
our network from within an rpg program? Any sort of examples would be
great. Our current systems include a .net program that will move a file
from a network server into the IFS. Currently it's used for some tasks that
need to run on a given schedule. Once an hour, once every 15 minutes
etc... I'd like to trigger the program to run when I need it to.

Thanks!

Mark
