send a string to another script

[kiboost]

Hi,

I would like to know where to look at to have scripts communicating. I've check tcp and udpsend but maybe there is something more efficient and reliable. Basicaly I have a script_A running, doing some stuff, and sometimes I would have another script_B telling script_A to do something.

Another step would be to have script_A on one machine, and script_B on another one ! I ever use psexec, I know the session id of the user etc, and just would like to discuss between scripts without having to write in a txt file and the other to read this txt file, would be cumbersome for just a command or two per day. The first intend of script_A is not this, so it must be cpu low.

Thanks
