Is it possible to run a batch script remotely on a Windows machine from Linux without installing ssh?

I am looking for a way in Linux to run a batch script on a remote Windows machine. I already searched some forums and the Internet and found e.g. this question.

It seems that the easiest way so far is using ssh. But do Linux or Windows also offer some built-in tools to solve this problem (something like开发者_Go百科 at-command for Linux-to-Windows)?

Have a look at this. It seems to be the linux counter part to the Windows Sysinternals PsExec tool. .

Another option is to use ad-hoc services for remote execution, e.g. Nagios NRPE for windows. It is not exactly what the developers had in mind, but it can be (ab)used in this way.
