Normally you would run batch files from NT and shell scripts from UNIX. If you have something like MKS Toolkit then you can run shell scripts in Windows. You can run those from NT DataStage as well. If you are talking remote executing UNIX shell scripts from Windows NT DataStage then you would need remsh or rsh emulator for Windows. There are several you can buy. If you are running Control M then it can do this as well.

That is why we need more information to answer your question. I think you could also do a search and see this answered before.

Before/After shell scripts get executed on the server, not on the client. You mention you are using NT clients, this is not really relevent to job and shell script execution, everything depends on the operating system of the server.

You should start a new topic next time. When you check the reject link checkbox then it will write rows the fail the constraints on the links above it. So I think the answer is yes.
