Pmcom (pmwho derivative)

Well, since I compeltely misread John's earlier question about holding
DTR down (the answer to which I don't know, but would love to find out),
I've modified the pmwho utility a bit to let you execute any command
you'd like. This program is subject to the same security concerns that
pmwho is, of course - it transmits the password cleartext over the
network, etc, etc. I have hardcoded it to not allow you to change
passwords remotely, because that's just an open invitation for misuse. :-)

No guarantees exist with this one. :) If you have it available, I'd
have to suggest using pmcommand instead of pmcom because of its MUCH
better security features, but we don't all run on suns or windows.

The program is available at
