Author Q) Sending remote signals
Generic Usenet Account

I want to send signals to processes running on remote systems from my
application. Can someone kindly suggest what my options are (if any).
Assume that somehow I know the PIDs on the remote system.


Thanks,
Gus

A remote Unix?

Then you might be able to login with ssh and start a process to
send a signal there. Otherwise you're limited to sockets and
out-of-band data. A local server there might listen for you
request and send signals to the local processes.

If you are talking about a standard system signal via the kill
command/system call then you can do it by executing a remote shell
call. The standard rsh or ssh mechanisms can be used if configured on
the box you want to remotely access. See your sys-admin.

Otherwise please provide more info.
