Sending Unix commands over Socket

[David Rushforth]

Hi

I am new to python

I am trying to setup a socket connection from a windows machine to a linux box. I wish to send linux commands over the socket, and receive the information/output to display in a tkinter object.
The question is ... can I use os.popen to do this? and if so how exactly. socket.send only accepts a string.

thanks in advance
