Supposing you have a connection between them (either TCP/IP, serial or another type):
1. Code a little application on UNIX to stay active and wait for a signal from PC (a TCP connection, a unique sequence of bytes at serial port, an e-mail, etc.)
2. When receive the signal, start your external code

Hope this helps somehow
