I think this message might be better of on the samba@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx mailing list. I have never herd of samba being able to execute commands on remote windows clients but i do know that executing commands remotely is not limited to the server so there might be some 3rd party applications out there n if there isn't it might be a nice idea to make one. There are some other alternatives e.g. run a ssh server on the clients and get the ssh server to execute commands or make the clients look for a txt file on a servers share and execute the content if it exists, however, this would be a lot of messing about and maybe something you don?t want to do or have time for.
