From: exibar at thelair.com (Exibar) Subject: [inbox] RE: Psexec on *NIX At first I thought this request was coming from just someone who doesn't know about SSH, the 'r' services, etc. No-one knows everything and that's cool, but then I thought about it for a second...and now to me this sounds either like someone who wants to ILLEGALLY use other resources on some elses network, wants to write a worm that will access anything he wishes on any network he wishes, or he's simply trolling because he's bored. ahhh, I know, a high school kid who wants to change his grades or impress a freshman or some chick to get laid...well, I've done some funky things to get laid, so I'll give him that one :-) I don't know any UNIX admin that would have a problem using SSH or rshell, etc. Exibar > -----Original Message----- > From: Chris Carlson [mailto:chris@...pucounts.com] > Sent: Thursday, May 06, 2004 4:19 PM > To: Valdis.Kletnieks@...edu > Cc: full-disclosure@...ts.netsys.com > Subject: [inbox] RE: [Full-Disclosure] Psexec on *NIX > > > I need a utility that behaves exactly like psexec, and for the second > time, yes, I know exactly what psexec does. > > I need to be able to execute commands on remote windows systems without > doing anything to them beforehand.
