I am working on an integration project with a dependency on interfacing with a command-line binary/executable which only runs on a LINUX server. I have no experience writing applications hosted on non-windows machines. I would like to call the Linux-based application from a Windows Machine and return the output from the application. I believe this could be done using PHP, NodeJS, etc... but I was curious if there are other alternatives for doing this.

    the usual way to execute a command-line app on a remote Unix/Linux server is using a remote execution shell, such as `ssh`. – isedev Oct 01 '14 at 15:39
  • thanks isedev. We actually ended up going that route calling the application using plink/putty using an SSH session and evoking it using the Process class in C#. This thread was very helpful - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22028592/testing-using-plink-exe-to-connect-to-ssh-in-c-sharp?rq=1 – Andy Oct 20 '14 at 16:57

We ended up going with this approach of using putty/plink.

Testing using Plink.exe to connect to SSH in C#
