I'm running a linux server backing up a windows workstation
environment. I need to call a python script that exists on the linux
box. I don't want to install python on all the workstations. The
program reads a text file that is created by a windows app and actson
the items listed in the file. My approach is to use cron to watch a
directory using find and -exec. But that means cron running ths
command every minute of every day. Seems inefficient. It seems that
a way to call the python script (with an argument) from windows is
what I really need. Is that possible?
