Starting a executable remotely

I am trying to find a way to use a script to remotely start an executable. I can change them out and use taskkill to start it. But when I tried a Call command it gave me an error:
"Component 'ipport50.ocx' or one of its dependencies not correctly registered: a file is missing or invalid"

I am using this so that I can change out an executable on 200 servers and for it to take effect I have to stop the task and restart it.

Any ideas.

Thank You,

PSExec - From SysInternals.com

This is a remote execution program, you can load it with computer names or domains to run on, along with the path for the executable you wish to run.

Hope this helps.

The executable already exist on the remote server. I just need to start it back up on that remote computer. I do not need to see it on my side except that it was successful. The article may have approached that issue but I do not have a subscription to that site.

Thanks
