Good morning - am relatively new to vbscripting and hope can get some help.

I would like to run a vbscript that hooks into a UNIX box and runs a script to check for the existance of a set of files in different folder locations.

I know that it is possible to use Putty to run a script on unix from vbs BUT
does anyone know if it is possible to send a message or a file back to the client pc with the result of the unix tests so that the vbscript can pick up this info?

Any help would be much appreciated
thanks
Anthony
