Overview
The Remote Command protocol is used to execute a command on a
server and return the output of that command to the client. This is
most commonly used with UNIX based servers, although there are
implementations of remote command servers for the Windows operating
system. The library supports both the rcmd and rshell remote
execution protocols and provides methods which can be used to search
the data stream for specific sequences of characters. This makes it
extremely easy to write Windows applications which serve as
light-weight client interfaces to commands being executed on a UNIX
server or another Windows system. The library can also be used to
establish a remote terminal session using the rlogin protocol, which
is similar to the Telnet protocol.
This library should not be used when connecting to a server
over the Internet because the user credentials are sent as
unencrypted text. For secure remote command execution and interactive
terminal sessions, it is recommended that you use the SocketTools
Secure Shell (SSH) library instead.
Requirements
The SocketTools Library Edition libraries are compatible with any
programming language which supports calling functions exported from a
standard dynamic link library (DLL). If you are using Visual C++ 6.0
it is required that you have Service Pack 6 (SP6) installed. You should
install all updates for your development tools and have the current
Windows SDK installed. The minimum recommended version of Visual Studio
is Visual Studio 2010.
This library is supported on Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2 and
later versions of the desktop and server platforms. If you are using
Windows 7, you must have Service Pack 1 (SP1) installed as a minimum
requirement. It is recommended that you install the current service
pack and all critical updates available for your version of the
operating system.
This product includes both 32-bit and 64-bit libraries. Native
64-bit CPU support requires the 64-bit version of Windows 7 or later
versions of the Windows operating system.
Distribution
When you distribute your application that uses this library, it is
recommended that you install the file in the same folder as your
application executable. If you install the library into a shared
location on the system, it is important that you distribute the
correct version for the target platform and it should be registered
as a shared DLL. This is a standard Windows dynamic link library, not
an ActiveX component, and does not require COM registration.
