What if one wants to shadow or remotely control a user w/o prompting the user? i.e. to have management monitor what an employee is doing w/o the employee knowing it?

Great article!.

I have been testing Terminal Services under Win2K as a potential replacement for pcAnywhere. I found a couple of shortcomings: 1) To setup FTP ability you have to use a couple of resource kit utiltities or just map share your drive and then connect to it from TS. (no big deal).

2) This is the only real problem I have with it: You can not Remote Control the original Server desktop. You may miss potential pop-up messages, can not display the real server's Task Manager, etc... like pcAnywhere allowed you to take control of the server. One of the articles tells me to look at the event logs for potential pop-op messages, but I don't know if that will always work.
