console to restart zope (version 2.5, windows). In the past zope has come right back up, no problem. But not this time. So I'm not geographically near my server, and was wondering if I can run a script to restart remotely?
That's one of the reasons not to use Windows for server tasks.
In case the machine still runs it would be possible to solve the situation using a remote control program like VNC (http://www.uk.research.att.com/vnc/). Still this has some security implications because VNC itself doesn't have encrypted communication builtin.
You can install a sshd for Windows NT / Windows 2000 (there are some commercial sshd servers available). Then you can connect through ssh to the box and run the start.bat script (or do other things from the commandline like stopping and starting services etc. Contrary to popular belief, Windows Nt *IS* manageable from the commandline!
