Why do you need those screens and not some functionally identical text logon? It is possible to get the single-user console to be via a serial port, (and by extension over a modem,) but doing it over a network is always going to fail if the network drivers are not loaded, say in single-user mode. The only reason I can think of is if you want to support users who have no GUI running. It might be possible to come up with some app that lets you do that, the interfaces are pretty simple, but it probably isn't out there already. -- Richard Urwin
