That would work except for the fact that I cannot get to the command line
on the 2nd server. I am connected via VNC to SERVER1. SERVER2 is on the
same wire but each server has its own firewall and while they can
communicate on certain ports (netbios) with each other, SERVER2 cannot
talk to me over here - I have to try and do something to it via SERVER1.
Obviously, I have access to c$ on SERVER2 but that's where it ends.
