How do I remotely execute built-in Windows commands like "dir" and "del"?
Many Windows DOS commands such as "DEL" and "DIR" are built-in commands that are only available within the command shell cmd.exe. Remote execution within VShell for Windows does not include running the client-specified command within a command shell. Therefore, the command shell must be run as part of the remote execution as specified from the client's side. Remote execution of cmd /c <command> should work successfully.
For example:
vsh user@host cmd /c dir - remotely list the directory
vsh user@host cmd /c del <filename> - remotely delete a file
