You want to make an application that will install these softwares remotely. Correct me if I'm wrong.
You can do this .NET remoting by developing 2 apps: one for the server that will be the remote computer and one for you computer. Of course, you will need administrative rights on the remote computer.

Thanks for quick reply...
Actually i have only one Application which will run on Server...
First i create a connection wid any client machine on LAN through ipAddress ,password,username
Then after it i extract the list of installed software from there ....(Done)

Problem:
Now as i have the installed software list on my server Pc.And i wanna installed any missing software from server PC to Client ..

One possible choice would be to transfer the setup files needed for a certain software and run the installer in background ( if the installer package supports command line ) with Process class. For example msiexec arguments: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/En-US/library/aa367988.aspx
