Simple Socket Guidance

Hi,

I'm currently working on a project in which I need to run a process on
one machine that can invoke a process on another machine over the
internet. For example, pressing [enter] on my machine will run a script
on another machine (with static IP) arbitrarily far away.

I'm new to this sort of coding, so I just wanted to get a rough idea
what I should be diving into. This would be the job for a socket,
correct? Or servlet? Am I right in looking at Ruby and Python? If you
could just steer me in the right direction, I can manage. Thanks a lot.

Hi,

what u need to do is write a client server program.
Server runs on a remote machine on which u need to invoke a process.
and client runs on your machine.

You can implement these client servrers using sockets based on tcp.

When ever you press ENTER on client machine send a message on the tcp
connection from client to server. On server decode the message and
invoke a process using fork..etc.

If you want any more info please feel free to contact

you can post your further questions regarding this on this group :
