WSH 5.6 can run scripts that reside on remote systems. The following scripts demonstrate this capability. These scripts make the assumption that the files are located on a local machine directory called "c:\wsh5.6"; change the local path and the remote machine name as necessary.

After initially running RemoteTest.WSF on the local machine, there may be a small pause as DCOM verifies your identity. After you see the "Done" message, a file named "c:\beenhere.txt" on the remote machine indicates the time that you executed the command (from the remote computer's clock).
