Send Command to Linux via Windows Mobile?

[yidiyuehan]

Hi, Anybody knows any software compatible with WM to remotely send command to Linux system?

Under Windows we have plink which is pretty good to send any command to linux.

Basically I need to have a simple user interface (just a few buttons), I load this interface, it will auto log into the linux server. Once I click one of the button, it will send a few command lines to Linux.

I tried with Visual Studio 2008 without success as Sendkeys is not available for WM platform.

Anybody has any idea?

thanks a lot in advance

Personally the few times i need to connect to a Linux box from my PPC i use Pocket Putty. OK it's command line only but it's good enough for my needs.

vnc would also work well of cause one would take over the linux but that would mean one could send commands by typing them into a console or clicking on the button which perfomred that command

thanks a lot Rudegar and Deedee,

I have tried pocket putty using VB 2008, however I couldn't access to the linux server with below commands:

Private Sub btn_sd1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles btn_sd1.Click

Dim m_Process As New ProcessStartInfo()
m_Process.FileName = "putty.exe"
m_Process.UseShellExecute = False
m_Process.Arguments = "root@Linux_Server " & "/etc/asterisk/intercom/203.sh"
Process.Start(m_Process)
End Sub


"Linux_Server" is the saved putty session I saved with the pocket putty. /etc/asterisk/intercom/203.sh is the directory of the linux bash file I need to execute.

Basically I just need to login into the Linux Server and execute the bash file once the button is clicked.

Deedee you have any ideas?

thanks a lot.

Unfortunately none.

My VB is limited to not much more than text file processing, i used to parse a lot of various log files by hand and decided to learn VB6 so i could automate the process. the VB is slowly extending in function but tends to be snaffling someone elses code and hacking it to work the way i want it.

My Linux is equally restriced in scope, actually probably more so.

Wish i could have been more help.

This may be possible using MortScript. Why don't you post your request in the Development & Hacking forum as there is an active Mortscript thread there.

Here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=289197) is its direct link

I will learn what is MortScript if pocket putty isn't really workable.

If there is a pocket plink it will become much easier as I can do this using Plink with VB.net.
