question about running applications

[niv]

Hi,
(1) I want to be able to return the programs running
locally on MachineA in my network from MachineB.

(2) I also want to be able to kill a process running on
MachineA after I have determined the process running.

Are these 2 possible?

Thanks for your help,

niv

For (2), a program called tskill.exe comes with newer versions of Windows
and it does what you want

Hi,

You could run a web service in machineA , then you could use the
Process.GetProcesses() to get a list of processes running in the machine and
Process.Kill() to kill a process.


Hope this help,

Of course in order to do this, Poster should make sure that the caller
is providing an NT user account that has the permissions to do Kill on
that remote machine. And use Impersonation () with that user
name/password before calling Kill..

Or.. download www.sysinternals.com's PsKill utility (may be wrap it??)..
