- Is there some system service that supports starting a process on a different,
- but DECnet connected, VMS machine? It would be something like a LIB$SPAWN,
- but would take hostname, userid, and password, as necessary arguments.
-
- What I'm looking for is a DECnet equivalent of the TCP/IP "rexec" system call.
-
- Is there such a thing?
-
- Thanks in advance.
