"Hmmm... I wonder how they are going to do that on a Windows server?"

Well, there are known unknowns and unknown unknowns...

At least two possibilities spring to mind, one that they have installed 7.5x2 and therefore have MKS Toolkit or that they have MKS Toolkit or Cygwin (etc.) installed to emulate the UNIX environment, the other that they want to remotely execute a UNIX shell script via some mechanism such as rsh.
