I'm on a Windows server, I'm looking for a way to run some scripts (through RSH?) remotely on Linux servers.
Thing is, I have to do a lot of stuff manually on different servers whenever I want to test something and I'd like to automate it, also to make it less error-prone.
Is there any way to do this?
Currently I'm just logged in to SSH terminals with Putty and run the scripts locally on the Linux servers.
You are already using great protocol for remote access (SSH). I would recommend you to use it for running commands remotely too. PuTTY you mentioned contains also a text console SSH client plink. If the remote scripts are not very interactive the best option would be to use plink:
plink [options] [user@]host [command]
If the script is highly interactive it could be better to use the classical GUI PuTTY.
putty -ssh -l user -pw password -m command.txt host
In this case you have to create a file (command.txt) and store the command to execute there. Here is more information about PuTTY command line.
For this use of SSH it could be very helpful to use a public key authentication instead of passwords. Then it is possible to run the commands without entering a password. See for example: Public Key Authentication With PuTTY or Key-Based SSH Logins With PuTTY.
