Hi all, simple question, i can create an asp script that allows me to check into the server it is created on to retrieve information on all sorts of files, ie websites, sizes, data traffic. etc........

here is the situation in full

i have two servers, one is a win 2000 server which the above system is on,. the other server is a linux server which is situated out of the office, and does not run asp. Now can i use the win 2000 server to retrieve info in the same way from the second server, without putting the info on the second server. ie using the exact same scripting, on the win2000 server, make the computer retrieve the exact same info, ie the websites, sizes, traffic etc from the other computer, without putting the script on their,

firstly i do not want to be told how to i will sort that later, i just want to know if it is possible, or if i would have to use php on the second server to do the task, (I do not know php but know asp that is why i ask)

Unfortunately i do not want to install asp on the second server,

can the above be done, a simple yes or no will do for now, then i can provide proof that i own both servers later, for assistance on how it is done
 
Where is the information stored on the 2nd server ?? In a database ??
