Even if you're not wanting to run it as a process, MichalGajda already gave you the ideal solution to run a batch file remotely. PSEXEC, which is a free tool developed by Sysinternals and is now from Microsoft. I have used it to do exactly what you are looking
to do several times, including passing the credentials as you described. Just put the batch file on a network share. It's easy to do this for a 'one off' but if you have a list of computers that you want to run this on you can do it by creating a .vbs file
and having it read a file for the list (one per line) call the batch file, and then give feedback in another file.
Try something like this: (Note: please give MichalGajda credit for answering the question though)
