If you want to understand the interaction between the Manageability Commander Tool and the Manageability Outpost Tool, from a programmatic perspective, then I recommend you review the following source code files:
- Manageability Controls\ProcessMonitorForm.cs : startButton_Click method -- Basically just sends a plain text string that contains the "EXEC" command (as understood by the Outpost tool) and a program executable name (including path if not found in the standard system path on the target system's OS).
- Manageability Outpost Tool\AmtSerialAgent.cs : ProcessDataBlockHandler method -- Look for the "if" statement that handles any "exec" commands. This is how the remote agent receives the commands to execute a local process. It attempts to create a local process for the given application executable.

So.. in order to get the "exec" command executed in the AMT machine you need to have OutPost installed in the local AMT Machine?
