The REXEC server is started with the STRTCPSVR *REXEC command.

Any compatible rexec client can send commands to it across a network. iSeries Access provides a rexec client you can install on a network server that is cleanly compatible with your AS/400. (You can also use rexec.exe that should be available on your network server.)

If you send a command, it will run in batch. If you choose, you can send a SBMJOB command to set the batch environment your command will run within.
