Terminal Services. Set it up using add/remove programs->add/remove windows
components. Select Ts, click OK and check Remote Administration. The user
needs to log in with a userid that's a member of the local Administrators
group, but that's what you seem to want anyway.
It can use encryption. Grades are Basic - 40 bit, Strong - 56 bit and
Strongest - 128 bit.
Search MSKB for articles - it's easy to set up and use. Just open up TCP
port 3389 on your fw. All you need on the client is a TS client. Either
d/l the TSAC or use TS Client Creator on the server to create a floppy
that installs on the client.
Oh and BTW - did I mention that it's fast as well ?
