Hi folks,

I need hint how to connect to window server machine from other server  
and want to execute command but i am unable to connect. I suspect it is  
win32ole.connect (“winmgmt:\computername”) but it is not working.

Please suggest some good option.

Thanks in advance,  
-Pawan

Install the cygwin tools and connect via ssh
