I have Windows box and I wish to invoke a .sh script on a remote Unix server.
Can someone help me with the command if it is possible using WinSCP?
Please refer to https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scripting#different_account
But I suggest to use a SSH client such as PuTTY or Bitvise Tunnelier to execute some command on remote server.
To invoke a remote command using WinSCP, use the call command.

I am using psexec to execute commands on remote server. Here is my command,
PsExec.exe" -u user \\server -h run.bat
I am entering the password manually. here I am using standard user account due to security issues. When I run the command I am getting the error,
"Make sure that the default admin$ share is enabled"
I read here that it cannot be done without admin privileges.
But when I test the same command in LAN it works in standard user.
How it works in LAN not in Remote server ?
Is there any alternative tools which will work in standard user ?
Please help me.
As an alternate tool, you can use Powershell and WinRM. Powershell allows you to execute a command, or an interactive session, on the remote windows server.
An example of executing a command is available here:
How to programmatically/remotely execute a program in EC2 Windows instance
If you need an interactive session, look at the Powershll command 'Enter-PSSession': https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh849707.aspx
I am trying to run a batch file that checks out code from a repo. This file is on a different server and i am trying to run it using powershell from my local machine after enabling remoting. when I use Invoke command nothing is returned on my powershell. If i directly try to checkout the code using svn command to the remote server i get svn access forbidden error. Is there a way to resolve this
I am a newbie in powershell script. I want to uninstall a service on remote machine and re-install it again. I am able to stop the service, change the files that service is using and again start it.
But, now I want to completely uninstall it.
One more thing, I will be executing these scripts via TeamCity.
I have tried following ways, but each one is giving trouble:
using wmi class
running installutil command on remote machine. But, cant execute this on remote machine since there is problem in accessing that service.
Using Get-WmiObject command and then calling delete() on retrieved service.
Is there any promising solution ??
Any help will be appreciable..
After playing a lot with TC and many commands, finally I got my answer to uninstall a service on remote computer, and its working properly.
I have made use of "wmic" command and provided the remote computer name, username and password for /node:, /username:, and /password: parameters. And, provided 'installutil.exe' command to be executed remotely. Here, the actual command is..
"wmic /NODE:$serverName /USER:$userName /PASSWORD:$password process call create '$path_to_installutil_exe\installutil /u $exe_location_path_of_service'"
As the title describes I need to run a command on a remote server and I do not have access to remote desktop! I head that this should be possible using Powershell, but I can't find any good tutorials on this.
Recommendations?
The easiest way is to use psexec.exe (Part of Microsoft Sysinternals).
You can also use powershell.
I wrote a blogpost about these two alternatives a few days ago:

When using PSEXEC or PowerShell remoting you can execute a command on a remote machine, but it is not interactive with any currently logged on user. Using PowerShell requires 2.0 to be installed on your machine and remotely AND remoting must be enabled AND you must have admin rights on the remote computer.
I have a perl script that should execute on the log files in the remote server from my local desktop. Could some one suggest me best approach.
I used Net::SFTP but there is a problem with installing SFTP package from CPAN. Is there any good package available in Perl to do this functionality?
Can you tell me whether the following steps are fine?
Open SFTP connection with remote server
execute the perl at remote location from the established connection..
Any sample code for this?
If you mean that the Perl script is on the remote unix server and you want to invoke the Perl script from your local machine, then you can ssh into the remote unix server and then once you are connected, call your perl script using perl yourscript.pl.
If you mean that the Perl script is on your local machine and you are dealing with log files on the remote server, then it would be more efficient to have the Perl script located on the remote server that stores the logs, and invoke it in the way described in the above paragraph.
I'm not clear exactly what you are trying to achieve but if you just want to execute a Perl script on a remote server you may want to look at software specifically built for remote server management.
Tak is one such piece of software but it's quite new and a bit lacking in documentation.
Rex is a more mature, it would seem, piece of software for remote server management.
Both of these should allow you to run commands locally that perform actions remotely on your servers. I wouldn't have thought you'd need to do anything with SFTP and would think you could do it all with those or hand-rolling something with commands over SSH.
Instead of Net::SFTP, try using Net::SFTP::Foreign or, if you want to run commands on the remote host via SSH, Net::SSH2 or Net::OpenSSH .
