| Hi,
I would like to run perl script on linux machine from windows perl script.
Can any body help me out on this regard, is there any module which takes
care of this?
Thanks,
snanda.

The most common way that people do that is when the Linux box is
running a webserver (such as Apache) which in turn runs a CGI program
written in Perl. Even if that isn't exactly what you're talking about,
could that be a way to do what you're looking for?

It's certainly easier to leverage an existing service (in this case,
the http service) than to roll your own from scratch.
Good luck with it!

That's funny, I would have said the most common way to run a script
remotely would be either Net::Telnet or Net::SSH (with a preference
for Net::SSH). With CGI you need to use some form of authentication
(either roll your own or find a module) or anyone can run your script
remotely.
