I need a utility that behaves exactly like psexec, and for the second

Say I'm sitting on a picnic bench tapped into my corporate wireless network in Florida from my laptop and for some strange reason I need the MAC address of a desktop in Ohio. In windows, it only takes a 'psexec \\ohio ipconfig /all'. I don't need to use a remote desktop client, I don't need to start the telnet server service on the system, and I don't need to log into a router to check its arp tables. I simply execute a command on the remote system.

I need this for unix.

I don't think you're going to find this. You could run psexec in VMWare, but you said that you didn't want to do that. You would use a Mac and run Virtual PC and do it. But natively from a nix box? I don't think that exists. You're going to have to roll your own.
