Bill,

With Process start you can start everything as long as it is reachable and
you have the rights.

Success,

Forgive me, Cor, but /which/ variant of Process.Start() launches a
process on /another/ machine?

If I read the original post correctly...

"run couple Unix shell scripts (in IBM AIX box)"

....Unix shell scripts don't tend to make much sense to a Windows machine.

You can use a proces start to invoke  SSH  ( like putty ) with the
commandname in the parameters...
