    I know this can be done, and have done it long ago, but I can't remember how to do it for the life of me...

    I have a website and the files needed to run an MMORPG server hosted at a free hosting site. This site provides good bandwidth, disk space, and FTP access - the problem is, I cannot execute the "RunServer.Bat" file needed to start up the game server. The website side of things is easy enough, and working just fine... But what I need to know is if there is any way I can make the "RunServer.Bat" file run on the remote server machine, when all I have access to is FTP.

    I know many people will suggest me to use something like VNC, or other various programs that require installs both for the host (the remote machine) and the client (my computer) - the problem with this is I don't have any way to execute installers on the remote machine either.

    I'm really going to need to know how to do this sort of thing, because I know it can be done without Telnet, VNC, or tftp access. Any help would be GREATLY Appreciated.

    Thank you. I was concerned over whether or not I was in the wrong spot. Maybe here I'll find knowledgable feedback. Thank you again.
