I have an application that needs to execute dtsrun from a remote
machine. Basically I have a batch file on the remote box, which
handles the execute. This works fine on a machine with client tools
installed. My problem is that I can't install the client tools on the
remote box.

Does anyone know what I need to install on the remote machine to get
this to execute, without installing the client tools? I've tried
copying dtsrun.exe and dtsrun.rll, but that didn't work

See "Distributing SQL Server Components" in Books Online, and also this
site:

Just copying the files over won't be enough - some components have to be
registered, so you will need to be able to have some sort of access to the
remote server.
