Is it possible to start commands on the local, windows, machine fromout unix.
I know app_start/client2server/remove&create local.
But what if for example I want to move a file from one folder to another. Do I have to create an .exe on windows side, which imports parameters which can be hand over with app_start?

Hi,

You can create an exe that moves the files.

The other option is to copy the file to the server (client2server), delete it from the client (remove.local.file) and copy it (from the server) to the new location on the client (server2client).

You can use cmd directly

i.e. like
app_start("cmd /Q/Cecho Hello World > c:\temp\xx.t","","","","")

worked fine without a DOS screen (or it was to fast so I didn't see it).

cmd /h for help.
