yes, there is a REXEC command in NT.
It requires that the REXEC Service is started on the target machine.
You might as well consider DCOM or VB6's new argument to CreateObject which allows you to specify a server name on which to create the object.
Is there a way to have the remote program communicate back to the program that activated it, i.e., return an error back to the activating program.
Also, for VB6 with Windows98, do you have sample code that starts a program running on another computer on the network, passing parameters to it (presumably via the command line). Can you conduct a DDE transaction with a program running on a remote computer. Can you use DDE to start the remote program on the other computer.
Thanks.

You say REXEC Service, are you sugguesting this is an NT Service? As far as I know this is a UNIX daemon not an NT service and the command is provided for NT usage on a remote Unix Machine. If I am wrong pleeeeease correct me and tell me where and how that service can be installed on NT.
Try looking at www.denicomp.com.
They have a REXEC pgm for NT for a reasonable price + rcp and rsh commands.
