What you are doing sounds exactly like what psexec already does. So you could either shell out to that or re-implement how it works. There are some descriptions of what it actually does:

open a telnet session (like MSalters suggests), or write a small server app that will run on the remote server, and listen for your its mother application's request to run that ".exe binary".
