Interacting with clients on a LAN network

[Khryus]

Hi, would it be possible to 'send commands' to other clients on a LAN network?

Like this:

Hi,

You can use the TCP protocol, like for any computer.

Br, FireFox.

No need to re-invent the wheel and just use PSEXEC.

Or you could give PsExec a try.

Edit: Jos was faster

I agree with PSExec for complex commands. Specifically for the two that you mention, though (killing a process and shutting down the remote PC), you can do so without it:

ShellExecuteWait("taskkill.exe", '/s "MyRemotePC" /IM "Firefox.exe"')
ShellExecuteWait("shutdown.exe", '/r /f <remotepc> /t 0)

yes, that's what I said to him through Skype in case his needs are handled by psexec.
