I prefer to use VNC tunneled thru an SSH connection to manage my remote windoze boxes.
something like.... On my gateway box.. ssh -g -L 5905:192.168.1.1:5900 destination.router.com Where 192.168.1.1 is the IP of the Win2000 box and destination.router is the gateway on the other end. Then VNC to my gateway box port 5905.. Bingo! Safe, secure, encrypted and no extra ports to have open!
